Hello, Harlene, Well, sort of. I hope to write a family history and I know
my Murphy ancestors were in Pope at least by 1818. They may have been here
earlier and left for a time, or perhaps did not leave. The 1810 census is
very confusing, so I cannot be sure about them. So, I am just "casting out
my net" so to speak for any and all ideas.
Margaret
