I was a little confused by your message. I got excited to see Samuel and Elizabeth together. When was this Samuel Jr. born and when did he die? As I have explained previously my Samuel, born in Sullivan Co TN in 1786 was the only McMurry in the Scott Co. VA area in the early 1800's and all of the others came through him. He died 6 Nov 1858 and his death record shows his parents as Samuel and Elizabeth. He was never refered to as a jr. but since his father had that name he could have been. I would love to be able to identify his parents and siblings and where ther lived and went. My Samuel married Jane Ramey belived to be the daughter of Jeremiah Ramey. I am still hoping that this will tie in with one of you out ther.

They wer married in Rutherford Co., and he enlisted in the Rev War from Rutherford Co., NC, and his widow filed a for a pension about 1850 in Robertson Co. Other McMurrys in the Rutherford Co., NC area had sons named Samuel: William in Rutherford Co named a son Samuel in his will of 1811 Robert in Cabarrus Co. (owned land in Rutherford Co.) named a son Samuel in his will of 1800. He had a daughter Jane Morrow McMurry b. abt 1783. The son of William appears to be younger than Samuel, Jr., and too young to be in the Rev War. The son of Robert had a son Samuel who appears to have stayed in the area. So by process of elimination, I have concluded that Samuel, Jr., son of Samuel McMurry and Margaret, migrated to Robertson Co., I have NOT found your James McMurry/Murry in Robertson Co., so I doubt if they migraged together.
