Re: Morey or Maury or Murrihy
Kerry,
I have often heard 'Murrihy' pronounced as 'Murry' in Clare - if that's of any help.

Re: Irish phone book online search- help
Hi Kerry.
This is eircom's online phone book http://www.eircomphonebook.ie/
Be aware that it defaults to a business search, so you'll need to click on the Residential tab to get home phone numbers.
Golden Pages is another business directory - http://www.goldenpages.ie/
