I am searching for info on my G-G-Grandfather, Solomon K. Murphy. He was born March 18, 1819 somewhere in Alabama.
His father (John?) may have been born in VA. I believe Solomon's Mother may have been named Polly and that he may have had at least three siblings (Basil G., Polly and James). Solomon married Elizabeth West (daughter of Robert West & Margaret "Peggy" Sanders) on March 10, 1843 in Williamson Co IL.
I Have located Solomon in the following Federal Census records: 1850-Williamson Co IL, 1860-Cape Girardeau Co MO,
1880-Randolf Co AR and 1900-Pope Co AR.
Many of my family members (including Solomon) are buried at the white Church (Pollard) cemetery in Pope Co.
Who were Solomon's parents? Where in Alabama was Solomon born? Any info would be appreciated.
James K. Murphy
