• Name	Alexander John Murray  [1]

  Death	16 Feb 1843
  Burial	Christ Episcopal Church, Owensville, Anne Arundel Co., Maryland   [2]
  Notes	From the Maryland Gazette: "Murray, Alexander J., of West River, A.A. Co., and Mary, fourth daughter of Jonas Clapham, Esq., of Balto. were married 10th inst., in the latter city, by Rev. Dr. Wyatt" (May 18, 1837)." (S208, 134). The census for 1850 gives two sons named William--I assume the older one is a son by his Alexander's first marriage. The younger, Mary Clapham's son, is Captain Murray, who was 24 when he died at Gettsyburg. [3]
