General Notes: Husband - Dr. U. B. Murray

He was born in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, where he spent his boyhood days. When 14 years of age he came with his parents to Washington County, where his father bought and operated the flour and saw-mills at Wylandville. He was educated at Hoge Summit, Carnegie, then learned the carpenter's trade, at which he worked for some time with Boyd & Son, of Pittsburgh. He subsequently returned to Washington, where he engaged for a time in general contracting, then conducted a music house and also bought grain extensively, and during 1878 and 1879 read medicine with Dr. George Cheeseman, of Library, Allegheny County. In 1880 he entered the Jefferson Medical College at Philadelphia, from which he graduated with the Class of 1883, and then embarked in the practice of his profession at Amity, Washington County, Pennsylvania, where he continued until 1904, when he moved to Washington. He became one of the leading surgeons of Washington, and developed an extensive practice throughout the entire county. He was a member of the American Medical Association, the Pennsylvania State Medical Association, and the Washington County Medical Society. He was a member of the medical staff of the City Hospital of Washington, of which he was one of the incorporators, and was a member of the staff of the Academy of Medicine at Washington.
He was identified with the Republican party and always took an active interest in local politics. Fraternally he was a member of the I. O. O. F., the P. O. S. of A., the Modern Maccabees and the Junior Order of American Mechanics.
