 79. MURRAY.-The genealogy and history of this branch of the family is
 desired. David Murray was a Revolu- tionary soldier. It is not known
 whether he or his father was the emil
 grant, but it was probably his father. Years ago one of the family visiting in
 Scotland saw a family tree in possess
 ion of the Duke of Athol and on it was
 the name of David Murray and the
 record: "He emigrated to Virginia" In Slaughter's Bristol Parish there is a record of James Murray, but the kin ship between David and James is un- known. Did any such kinship exist?
 David lived in Lincoln county, near Augusta. Ga His wife was Miss Wal
 ton: her Christian name is unknown to the writer. The eldest son was Thom- as w. Murray. very prominent man and at the time of his sudden death he
 was either a candidate for United States Senator or Governor of Georgia. 80. WALTON-The Walton lineage is especially desired as the Miss Wal | ton mentioned above was either a sis- ter or niece of George Walton of
 Georgia. signer of the Declaration of Independence.
