Posted on: Pontotoc County Query Forum Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ok/Pontotoc/844 Surname: MURPHY ------------------------- JO, I am familiar with the Texas counties near the Red River; I don't know this one. Excuse my ignorance, but is Pontotoc Co. in TX or OK? It sounds Indian, so I bet it is OK. I have Murphy's in N. central Texas in the same time frame. If any of your research contains any indication that my WILLIAM L. MURPHY is a son, brother, cousin or uncle of your Murphy ancestors, Please contact me.Thanks.
