I have been subscribing to this for a few weeks and have found it very interesting. And now I have finally decided to ask a question and see if anybody can help me. According to my family records I a descendant of Alexander Campbell McMurtrey (b. 1792 in NC d. 1849 in Cleveland County, Arkansas) through his son Dr. John Benson McMurtrey (b. 1825 in Shelby County, AL d. June 1862 in the Civil War.) I have listed that my 2nd Great Grand Uncle is the Col Elisha L McMurtrey and he is mentioned several times on the Cleveland County web page. I have never been able to find any record of the existance of Dr. John Benson McMurtrey, I have his DOB and DOD and his Civil War record but nothing that states anything about his family. I have searched through the Cleveland County website and every other geneology and have never come across anything. I was wondering if anybody knows anything else about the McMurtrey's and can help me find out who all the children of Alexander Campbell McMurtrey are. I would appreciate any help you can give me. Thank you, John Baldwin (3rd Great Grandson of Alexander Campbell McMurtrey)
