Found Old Murphy Letters
I found old Murphy letters from the 40's and 50's in Port Arthur, Texas.Daniel F. Murphy writing to his wife, Pat.I believe Pat is Pat Lyon.They have a son named Danny.Pat's mother, "mum" writes from Jacksboro, TX to her daughter. Mum runs a 5 and dime store.Pat's brother, Robt. G. Lyon writes from Paris, France, during WWII.Other names mentioned on land deeds:Andrew A. Murphy and his wife Margaret; Daniel F. Murphy (Senior?) and his wife Isabella.Around 1911 these folks bought land in Kalispell, MT.They were living in Prince Rupert, BC.Daniel and Pat live in Port Arthur, TX and move to VA.I bought these for a buck cause I love Genealogy and couldn't let them go without trying to locate the family.If any of this rings a bell let me know.If we can confirm the family I will be glad to send them to you.Thanks,
Shirley Luther(PS.I will try to locate the Lyon family also.)
