The old story told by my GG Grandfather's family of MURRAYS is that JAMES MURRAY of VA had lost his wife and he thus he left his three daughters in VA with family members, and the sons included an ALEXANDER MURRAY who had married BARBARA JULIAN b. bet. 1778-1781 in Randolph Co. NC and her parents had moved to Knox Co. TN by 1796 or so. This is the specifics listed by the oral historians of the MURRAY families within the line of RENNE MURRAY and his father ALEXANDER MURRAY ( who may have had half brothers living in or near to KNOX CO. TN. ). Does any of this info fit other MURRAY families of WASHINGTON CO. TN to KNOX CO. TN ? Tina Rogers Beller MURRAY ORAL HISTORY in our GREENE CO. MO Line of MURRAYS. "Renne Murray born May 25, 1801, a son of ALEXANDER and BARBARY ( JULIAN ) MURRAY. " " ALEXANDER was born in Randolph Co. VA " ( think this MURRAY historian means NORTH CAROLINA as no county is named RANDOLPH in VA. some have listed that Alexander Murray was born about 1775 in Randolph Co. NC, but so far no one has given any verfications for him. I have not been able to find more on the name of Alexander Murray who would have been a single male, in either North Carolina or Tennessee that would fit his age, to have married Barbara Julian. - Tina Rogers Beller, Mar. 23, 2007 ) " BARBARY was born the same. " (* Barbara Julian born in RANDOLPH CO. NORTH CAROLINA between 1778-1781 ). " ALEXANDER a son of JAMES MURRAY of VA. " "JAMES MURRAY's father came from England to PA. in an early day.
