Misc. Notes
No documented explanation for change of name and no indication of twin births on 4-NOV-1912. Birth entry states that Agnes had no previous children. [245] Since ‘Murray’ was his mother’s maiden name, I could speculate that changing his name to Murray was in memory of his mother who died when he was only three.

Baby picture of Murray was taken in Bristol, SD, at the B.W.Johnson studio.

Last residence: 90806 (Long Beach). [342]
