OBITUARY OF M.R. McMURRY, VINITA, OKLAHOMA

On 1 October 1930, Vinita received the sad news of the passing of one of her best known Citizens, Mr. M.R. McMurry. As was his wont, with his devoted wife, he spent the summer at Long Beach, California and was about ready to return to Vinita. While on his way to consult a doctor in Long Beach, the final summons came.

Tennessee gave this man birth, 5 November 1871, his parents being Newton and Elizabeth (Gordon)McMurry, sturdy Scotch-Irish pioneers. When he was fourteen years of age, the family moved to Reno County, Kansas and engaged in farming. Five years of the time spent in Kansas Mr. McMurry was a builder and contractor in Hutchinson. March 14, 1896 he married Mabel O. Freeman at Hutchinson and she with three brothers and one sister survive him. Two of the brothers live near Hutchinson, one lives in Texas and the sister lives at Yoder, Kansas.

Mr. and Mrs. McMurry moved to Vinita, Oklahoma in January 1911 where he engaged in the wholesale hay business for about ten years, quitting business to enjoy life more to his liking in the open field and along silver streams.

His was more than an ordinary character. Mediocrity, he knew not for whether in business, at a game or in the realm of sport, he was always a success. Patient, thorough and careful, in his quiet way he mastered his many undertakings.

He loved nature. The great outdoors made a strong appeal to a soul attuned to the harmony of the brook, the song of the bird and the whispering of the trees. Nature left her imprint upon this man as shown in his sterling honesty, his rugged character, his friendship and his many friends.

His many Long Beach friends will miss his coming and going, Hutchinson will miss his friendly visits but Vinita feels the loss of a splendid citizen, a good sportsman and a true friend.

David B. McMurray, b. 30 Dec 1844 TN, d. 16 March 1920. Soldier in Civil War. Never married. Dropped the Mc from his name and went by David B. Murray. The following obituary was taken from a newspaper of Hot Springs, South Dakota and sent by a niece, Emma Garner of Excelsior Springs, Missouri, record 146 41, Part II

It is with deep regret that the Star chronicles the death of David B. Murray, which occurred Tuesday evening, 16 March 1920 at the State Soldiers Home, where Mr. Murray had spent the last thirteen years of his life. During that time he had become very well known and liked by Hot Springs people and because of his deep interest in the public schools was considered a personal friend by every child and young person in the town.

Mr. Murray's great hobby was books; besides being a great reader and along the lines of history a deep student. He was anxious to do everything in his power to help young people to form such tastes. He made the schools the basis for his work and during the years of his life here he had donated no less than thirteen hundred volumes to the public school library. These are all works of the best literature and form a wonderful memorial to their donor's generosity and public spirit. He visited the high school regularly every Wednesday, always bringing with him at least one good book and usually giving a talk to the pupils concerning the volume or volumes. He also subscribed for several high grade magazines for the school and had framed and hung in the high school auditorium pictures of all the presidents of the United States, with a framed biography of each.

Mr. Murray's interest extended to the rural schools and about two years ago he presented a framed copy of Lincoln's Gettysburg address to each rural school in the county. His familiarity with the history of the Battle of Gettysburg was complete down to the minutest detail, and indeed his knowledge of the history of the whole Civil War was amazing in it comprehensiveness. Abraham Lincoln's life was sacred history to him and two entire shelves in the school library are filled with all the authentic biographies of Lincoln which Mr. Murray could collect.

Although he has become so well known during his life in this town, the details of his earlier life can be but meagerly given. He was born in Tennessee and enlisted in the 3rd Missouri Cavalry, Co. E., 12 Oct 1861 and was discharged at New Orleans 27 July 1865. He spent some years of his life as a school teacher but worked chiefly at his trade of carpenter. After making his home in Rapid City for a number of years he came to the State Home in 1907, remaining here until the time of his death. His last illness was brief, a heavy cold developing into pneumonia.

A sister of Mr. Murray lives at Drakeville, Iowa. One other sister and brother survive but their residence is not known.

Funeral services will be held Friday morning at the Methodist Church and burial will be at the State Home Cemetery. The high school will be closed for the morning in order to give the pupils an opportunity to attend. Flags on both school buildings were at half-mast Tuesday.
 

The following are a few lines taken from a letter David B. Murray wrote to his niece Hazel Bayne, record 146 85, Part II, 10 Oct 1918.

Our parents were Robert Montgomery McMurray and Martha Miller. As I remember grandfather and father had the name Robert. Grandmother's maiden name was Montgomery, of the same Scotch-Irish family as General Montgomery, who was killed on Abraham Heights at Quebec. It was a family fad to give one boy a given name, Montgomery, in every generation. Brother Bill also had Montgomery in his name.

Our grandparents came from the Carolinas, North and South, to Tennessee with the first settlers in the wilderness of that unexplored country.

McMurrays settled near where the town of Murfreesboro now stands. At one time grandfather owned part of the land on which the battle of Murfreesboro or Stone River was fought. Before the War of the Rebellion he moved to near Brownsville in West Tennessee, where he died in 1857.

Grandfather Miller settled in Marshal County about 15 or 20 miles west of Columbia, Tennessee. The counties were not named when they settled there. Grandfather Miller moved to Iowa in 1847 and from that time made their home there.

Moved with her parents to Haywood County when three years of age, d. 15 April 1907. Both buried in Fairview Cemetery, south of Hutchinson, KS

William (Billy) H. McMurry was reared on a farm in eastern Tennessee and when still a boy moved with his parents to Haywood County, in the same state, where he later married. He bought a tract of "Congress land" at one dollar and twenty five cents an acre, later he sold that farm and bought a larger one, on which the family lived until 1873. He, with two of his Tennessee neighbors, James A. Moore and H.D. Freeman came to Kansas on a prospecting tour. W.H. McMurry bought a full section of railroad land in Lincoln Township, Reno County. There was cheaper land to be obtained but Mr. McMurry was looking for fertility and a good supply of water. He arranged for the erection of a house on his land and returned to Tennessee. In the fall of 1873 he moved his family to Kansas. W.H. McMurry was a Union man during the time of the Civil War and a Republican ever after. He became a substantial farmer and an extensive dealer in hogs, taking a good deal of pride in the high grade of hogs that he raised. He and his wife were members of the Methodist Church and took an earnest and influential part in all good works in their neighborhood. (From History of Reno County)

They were parents of seven children as follows: James Franklin, Harriet, Elizabeth Jane, Susan Frances, Hugh L., William E. Charles W. All part of "The Tennessee Colony."

James Franklin, first child of Wm. H. And Martha (Faires) McMurry, was born near Brownsville, Haywood County, TN. His education was in the subscription schools of that era, the public school system not yet inaugurated. When twenty one years of age he began to teach in the public schools during the winter months and farmed during the summer months. This he did for ten years. He was married to Ann Mariah Thomas 2 Dec 1869. In 1884 he followed his father's example and came to Kansas, locating near his father in Lincoln Township, Reno County. For six years he rented farms, then in 1891, he bought a quarter section of land in the township. In addition to general farming he

became interested in the dairy business. Several times he served the Republican party as a precinct committeeman. From 1904 to 1908, he served as a member of the board of county commissioners and was widely and favorably known throughout the county. "Uncle Franklin and Aunt Ann" took an active part in the Methodist Church at Elmer.

Seven children were born to this union: Edgar Lee, Guy T., Lulu Jane, Ernest and Pearl, Twins, Linnie Kate, Hugh.

The following poem written to Lulu by her cousin Tennie (Stewart) McIver.

I used to envy her

Her quick and ready skill,

She could do any kind of work,

Went at it with a will

I could only poke along

Admiring her deft hand;

What was to me hard digging

Was to her like sifting sand.

She could wash and clean and sew

And best of all could cook;

Few girls like her you'll find

Though long and well you look.

She seemed to know by instinct

What was hard for me to learn;

She'd have a job all finished

While I wondered where to turn.

Sometimes when I have been

"Laid up" for many days,

I've wished for some one like her

(Now that's not idle praise.)

But "each to his small corner,"

I've tried to do my best,

I've not always liked my corner

But I think I've stood the test.

She may have had some faults,

Oh yes! She could get riled!

But her temper never smouldered

When she was mad she 'biled.'

And she didn't 'bile' right often

Nor without some fair excuse;

And I've heard without some temper

We'd be mighty little use.

If ever I'm in trouble

I'd like to have her by my side,

I know she'd do her level best

Whatever might betide.
