The Beginning

In July 2015 my grandfather, Jerry Murphy Sr. and his wife Miriam McCoy Murphy lost their home to a fire. While most of their possessions were gone, something great remained... In the bottom drawer of an old wooden desk buried under burned insulation and papers, was a book of our entire family history. 

With so much to learn about my family and so little time, I decided to start a blog. Also, this seems to be the most convenient place to store images of the book for others to see!
