Margaret Mullen Murray was born in County Galway, Ireland, in 1861, and was therefore 56 years of age. She was married in Ireland to Peter Murray, and they came to the United States about 36 years ago, living first in St. Marys for a year and then coming to Rolfe, continuing to make this town her home until her death and therefore being one of the town's earliest residents.

Margaret married Peter John Murray, son of Peter Murray and (?) Hynes, in 1876 in Ireland.¹ (Peter John Murray was born in 1849 in Ireland,³ died in Jan 1918 in Elk Co., PA and was buried in Jan 1918 in Holy Rosary Cemetery, Johnsonburg, Elk Co., PA.)
