<p class="yiv5921857100MsoNormal">Hi,</p>
<p class="yiv5921857100MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="yiv5921857100MsoNormal">Is this email list still functioning? I don’t seem to be getting emails from it, and I used to get quite a lot. If it is, I need some help figuring out the identity of one of my great-great-grandfathers. Here is what I know:</p>
<p class="yiv5921857100MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="yiv5921857100MsoNormal" style="margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 8.0pt; margin-left: .5in; line-height: 106%;">His children were Charles August Murray, b. 26 Jan 1896 and Lilian Murray b. around 1898. Charles was born in Oakland, CA. It appears Lilian was born in WA.</p>
<p class="yiv5921857100MsoNormal" style="margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 8.0pt; margin-left: .5in; line-height: 106%;">I believe the mother of those children was Ida B. Kroschel, b. about 1869 in Milford Township, MN.</p>
<p class="yiv5921857100MsoNormal" style="margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 8.0pt; margin-left: .5in; line-height: 106%;">I think Ida and the father separated before 1900 because Ida is shown as head of household with two kids living in Linn County, OR in the census.</p>
<p class="yiv5921857100MsoNormal" style="margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 8.0pt; margin-left: .5in; line-height: 106%;">According to Charles August Murray’s prison questionnaire, Lilian was living in Los Angeles in March 1928. (His mom is listed as Ida Czarske because she remarried.)</p>
<p class="yiv5921857100MsoNormal" style="margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 8.0pt; margin-left: .5in; line-height: 106%;">The 1910 census shows unknown for the birthplace of the father of Charles and Lilian. But the 1920 census shows MA for birthplace of his father and MN for mother. I looked at all CA,OR, WA 1900 census records for Murray with birthplace of MA and did not find anything.</p>
<p class="yiv5921857100MsoNormal" style="margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 8.0pt; margin-left: .5in; line-height: 106%;">1930 census for Charles shows dad from Minnesota so who knows.</p>
<p class="yiv5921857100MsoNormal" style="margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 8.0pt; margin-left: .5in; line-height: 106%;">My parents both did the autosomal DNA test with Ancestry.com, but I don’t know how to use it to solve this puzzle.</p>
<p class="yiv5921857100MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 8.0pt; line-height: 106%;">I’ve had this brick wall for years now. Any leads or tips will be most appreciated. If you don’t have any tips, I would appreciate at least one response just to know this list is still live.</p>
<p class="yiv5921857100MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 8.0pt; line-height: 106%;">Thanks!</p>
