This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Barnett, Short, Murphy, Hanger Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/YCB.2ACI/527.1 Message Board Post: I would like to add the name of Murphy to the query for info on Barnett and Short families. The names I am seeking info about are James Murphy & wife Mary Johnson Murphy, grandparents of Minnie Mae Murphy Barnett. Also need info on Minnie's mother, Margaret Hanger Murphy wife of James Thomas Murphy. All roads in this family seem to lead back to Louisiana where James Murphy was reported to born in 1860 census. Any help would be appreciated.
