Biography

This profile is part of the Murray Name Study.

Baptism

Jean Murray, daughter of William Murray and Margaret Murray, was born about 1781 and baptised in Watten, Caithness, on 14 April 1781: Witnesses: Donald Cormack in Watten, David Murray in Knapperfield.[1][2]


Jean married in 1803: : 15 Jul 1803 Watten, Caithness, Scotland Entry for 25 Jun reads: James Georgeson in Knapperfield & Jean Murray in Tarrool were contracted in order to marriage & after the usual proclamations & no objections offered their marriage was solemnized on the 15th July [3][4]

In 1851 James and Jean were living with their daughter Jean in Henrietta Street, Wick, Caithness. James's trade was "mason".[5]

Points for Further Research

Could Jean be the same woman as Jane Murray, also born 1781, who married John Ireland? Further information is needed - it is possible the two women were cousins, for example.

As the marriage cert. of James and Jean shows James of Knapperfield and Jean of Tarrool, which latter place is associated with her father William, I'm convinced the two Jean MURRAYs are one and the same person.

The unmerged match with Murray-4285 is pending further investigation of both Jean's to see if we can determine they are one and the same.
