John G. McMurray
Still looking for John G. McMurray who owned the J.G. McMurray Brush Manufacturing Company in Lansingburgh, NY during the last half of the 19th century. In the New York Times, there is an article detailing a huge explosion that occurred when a boiler blew up in 1865, destroying the four story brick building in which this business was housed. It said there were over 300 people who worked in this business and a frame three story house nearby that housed workers was also destroyed. John G. McMurray had these two children that I know of:
Adda Helen McMurray who married J. Henry Dater in 1854; She died in 1894
Lindley McMurray who lived in Lansingburgh in 1894.
Does anyone know anything else about this family?
