Just found it at familysearch.org: BRICE MURPHY Marriages: Spouse: ELIZABETH MCKINNEY Marriage: 11 JAN 1836, Anderson, Kentucky Have no idea who this might be. There is no other data other than the marriage listed. Perhaps my Terral L. Murphy had a brother? Time will tell. Donnie

Murphy and Mary Jane Corbin might have been married in Jefferson Co., KY....that is only a guess but my gt grandfather Brice Enos Cummings the son of Wm Cummings and Nancy MURPHY....moved from Shelby Co., KY to Jefferson Co. He married in 1896 to Eva Bland both of Bagdad. If you recall tehre was a Brice Murphy on the 1850 Anderson Co. Census there was a Brice Murphy age 2 son of Brice age 35 and Elizabeth age 32 (in census).....I believe this was the Brice that shows up on a 1900 census with Mary J....I believe this was a brother to my Nancy Murphy... Also I found a marriage of Brice E. Murphy and an Elizabeth McKinney in 1836 but this was years ago and I didn't write the county down....DUH!!! But believe it is in Anderson What do you all think ........could this be the Mary J you are looking for Marsha.........your some kind of cousin.....hahaha

I'm still wondering if this Terral L. and the Tilman L. are one in the same. I'm thinking the census takers just have the name incorrect. I can't get past the fact that Alice Parmer was living with this Tilman Lefler and listed as granddaughter. This Tilman has an Illinois connection and I'm thinking that may have something to do with not finding him on Kentucky census records. I would like to know if they're the same person. If not, I'd really like to know both their relationships to Brice Elkins Murphy. Could this Terral L. be Terrel Lefler vs. Terrel Leonard? Lefler could indicate a mother's maiden name. The Lefler surname is a name of this area is it not? I stopped in at the Shelby County Courthouse annex yesterday and could not find a marriage between Brice E. Murphy and Mary Jane Corbin...so now I'm at a loss as to where they might have married. Would they have married in Spencer or Jefferson? Oddly, I did find a marriage record between a Brice Murphy and a Martha Alice Starr, dau of Samuel Starr, on 6th Aug 1880. Anybody have any idea which Brice this is? or who this Martha Alice Starr is? Marsha, is this your Brice by chance? This Brice was born in Anderson County and was 28 at time of marriage. She was 21 and it was both first marriages. Just more stuff to keep me confused here....hehe...... Donnie

William Walker born MS 1/1886 died in Arizona in 1914. No other info found.

I had found Cabell in the 1920 Anderson Cty census with daughter Maria and grandson James but could not find Mattie although I knew she was still living. It is certainly possible that she worked as a seamstress and might have lived in. Age given for Mae Roach and ages of her children appear to place her out of running as one of Mattie and Cabell's daughters, however. I found the family with children's names on the 1900 census for Anderson Cty. Daughter Margaret was born 1892 and Mary (or possibly Maria) was born 1904. Also noted are sons Miles C. born MS 1883, William born MS 1886, and Charles born KY 1888. I will continue my search. Again, many thanks for taking the time to respond.

Looks like the one source I ran across says a marriage took place in Shelby so I definitely need to find time to get up here to the courthouse in Shelbyville and look around. They have virtually every marriage all the way back to 1792. Perhaps there will be a clue there. Since Cela died in 1889, Teral would have been 79 years old. I'm wondering if he had all his faculties or not, or perhaps, it was simply his advanced age that he allowed the transfer of deeds to take place. Just pondering things right now...... Donnie

I added it to my scrapbook....Yes I believe this was Wm H.'s mother but wonder why in the world he didn't know her parents names, etc or perhaps the person taking the information didn't ask him for more than the info given....makes you nuts doesn't it. Would you have any idea who the Elizabeth Murphywas, or where she may have died that was on the 1850 Census in Anderson Co.? Her age was given as 32 md to Brice Murphy age 35...I believe this has to be my line because they have Nancy age 14 in their home....this would make her the right age for my Nancy Murphy md to Wm Cummings. I believe they were in Shelby Co., KY.by 1896 because their son Brice Enos Cummings married in their house.
