Bio

Born to TP and Etta Murphy I assume near Dotson, TX; possibly Garrison since I think Grandpa lived there before moving to Dotson. Uncled Elmo was one of 12 living children born to TP and Etta. He moved to Houston where many of his other brothers and sisters live. I think he worked for Hughes tool in administration and possibly hired some of the other brothers or sisters to work for Hughes tool also. This info comes from visit with my last living Aunt recently. I think Uncle Elmo was in the service but not sure what branch. I assume Joe was Uncle Elmo and Aunt Levene's only child and they took worshipped him. Joe was always one happy cousin when I was around him. Always remember visiting Uncle Elmo and Aunt Levene and Joe when they lived behind Uncle Willie and Aunt Irmaree's drug store in Houston and seeing Joe play with his pet squirrels.
