Author: tinab300 Surnames: Murphy, Savage, Gillum Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.kentucky.counties.lawrence/258.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Robert, Have you found any information on David Murphy & Sarah Savage? I think they may have also had a daughter Martha born in 1859 & son Jefferson born in 1861. I believe David died sometime between 1860 & 1870 because I think Sarah had remarried a Gillum by 1870, and Thomas, Harrison, Martha & Jefferson were living with with a Sarah & Charles Gillum in Carter County. Sarah & Charles appear in Lawrence County again in 1880 with Thomas & Jefferson (now using Gillum as his last name) and daughter Martha Murphy Burchett is living next door. My intersting is with Jefferson Murphy but any information at all on the family will be appreciated. Thanks! Tina Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
