Welcome to my Murphy web pages! I am interested in most of the Murphy families of Virginia and North Carolina to some extent, but my primary interest is in my own line in Halifax and Pittsylvania Co., VA and Surry Co., NC:

Richard Murphy (c1730-aft 1810) and Keziah Terry of VA, NC and KY

- Mary Murphy (c1771-aft 1850) and Aaron Wright of Surry Co., NC.

I am also interested in other Murphys in the region whether related to me or not (1700s through ca 1850). Regrettably I have done very little Murphy research to date, so I don't have a lot to share. Check out the ones I have researched on my Documented Family Pages.
