Patrick Murrin Family

Theresa Jacobsen was looking through the "Find a Grave" website, and ran across these photos and references to Patrick Murrin, Sr. We have seen the photo of Patrick Sr. as an adult, but the other photos she uncovered are new to the site.

Patrick Murrin was the husband of Anne Hill, and sister-in-law of Liza Hill Ryan (both daughters of Edward and Margaret McDonnell Hill of Allamakee County, Iowa.

The Bingenheimers

One of the earliest family trees we saw when we first began building our site was the Bingenheimer Family Tree. Over the years this family has contributed a few items of interest, most notably the home floor plans of the Murrin family home. The Bingenheimers connect to our family through Theresa Murrin, wife of Michael Bingenheimer.

Patrick Murrin's grave is unmarked, however, that is not an uncommon thing. A number of our ancestors do not have marked graves either, in particular Batt Ryan's mother (we did ultimately get a photo of James Ryan from one of our distant cousins) and Margaret Hill's father. It is possible that the original grave markers were wood, and there was an intention to replace with a marble marker at some point.
