They were John Handy who married Rebeccah Nichols, Charlotte Handy who married her cousin Cannon Smith (son of George Smith), and Trustin Handy who married Sina Wright. Each of the children are followed forward for one or two generations in the ANNALS. Cannon and Handy Smith moved to Cass County, Michigan. Trustin and Sina lived in Caroline County, Maryland and Sussex County, Delaware. In my limited research on this branch of the Handy family, I have not run across any Murrays. Have you looked into the descendants of John Handy's brother, Capt. Isaac Handy (1746-1826). According to the ANNALS, he married Amelia Curtis, daughter of Samuel Curtis and lived in Somerset County on a tract named "Locust Grove". His son, Levin Handy (Nov 27, 1788-June 10, 1854 had a son named Severn Handy (Aug 18, 1829-Nov 10, 1855). You might want to search for information about Samuel Curtis?
