Non-Fiction Biography | Christian
When John Francis Patrick Murphy began researching his family tree, he was not prepared for just how much he would discover about his Murphy forebears—or just how much the story of his family’s early years in America would inspire him.
Based on his teachable research strategy, Our Immigrants’ Son is a full-hearted celebration of family as told through the story of the author’s Irish-American great-grandfather, Michael Joseph Murphy. It is filled with old photos, well-researched facts, and a whimsical quality as John uses creative license to show what his forebears might have felt, experienced, and undertaken throughout their lives.
Our Immigrants' Son blends Christian beliefs and values with genealogy, historical facts of the time period of his ancestors, and provides useful tools in case readers want to create their own family story using John's work as an example.
