Early settler in Somers Township, Preble Co., OH. Found in the 1824 tax record, but was certainly farming there earlier than that. He married another early settler's daughter—Martha Lewellen—on 2 May 1809 in Preble Co., OH (likely in Somers Twsp). They had 7 known children:

1) John Murray (1810-1891),
2) Thomas Murray, Jr. (1812-1891),
3) Phillip Murray (1814-1893),
4) Nancy Murray (1816-before 1850 Census),
5) William Murray (1817-1900),
6) Asa Murray (1820-1865),
7) Sarah Ann Murray (1829-1884), m. 1849 to Daniel Peters.

Thomas died between the 1850 and 1860 Censuses. His family plot is at Fairmount Cemetery in Camden, Somers Twsp., OH, though a marker may no longer be present for Thomas here. (Burials here exist after 1850, so he was likely buried here, as was his daughter Nancy.)
