Hello Mrs.. Saunders: I'm not sure this will help, but here goes. I am tracking Wrights through KY into TN and I found a James Bingham Murray born April 21st, 1805, in Edinburgh,Scotland. He married a Mary Strade(r?) October 3rd, 183(4?) in Brandenburg KY by a Rev (T?) L. Helm. The question marks come from not being able to read difficult, handwritten records from a Wright family Bible. There are others mentioned like Mary Murray born August 8th, 1821 in Green County KY, Eliza Ann Murray (a "consant" of JBM) born November 27th, 1814. It says Mary died July 25th, 1841 "Age nineteen years, eleven months, and fourteen days". However, I don't think the "math" is there to support it! Ha! Maybe it is, it's late and I'm tired! lol! I do not know where JB Murray is buried, I would like to know if you come across any other information. It may be in Somerville, in Fayette County, TN? Please let me know if you have any collateral information that might be useful. I'd be very gratefully for any leads at all. Hope this helps! W.
