7. Jemima Murray

(Descendants of James Murray and Jemima Morgan of Baltimore county, 1704-1964 by Robert Barnes, Perry Hall, Maryland)

DNA has proven he was NOT the son of the Marquis of Athol of Scotland, and was not even born in Scotland, but England and came from the Morrey's of Cheshire, England. He is somehow related to Humphrey Morrey/Murray 1st Mayor of Philadelphia whose family were Quakers. I am descended from James family and my DNA matches the Morrey's of Humphrey from Philadelphia.
