You're in good company, looking for the father of Daniel Murchison (b. 1770 d. 1840/1844) of McNairy County, Tennessee! Other descendants and researchers are Linda Morgan and Steven Vance. Here are my only source notes for Daniel in McNairy, Tennessee. I believe he likely lived in Moore County, North Carolina prior to settling in Tennessee, but there is no definitive proof, nor is there a known father.
