Your webmaster, Charles Murphree, has posted a web site with his 35+ years (at the time) of personal research on the descendants of Daniel Murphree. This information may differ from the other databases posted here but, as we always suggest, use this data as a research tool only. Since the Internet age arrived you will find many databases most with errors galore. The vast majority are simply name collections with the accuracy or lack thereof, based purely on the integrity and dedication of the compiler. If you want to examine another Murphree database from another viewpoint click here and have a look. We take no responsibility for the accuracy of the information as it was compiled for my personal use with an eye toward correcting errors and fine tuning the data as time becomes available.

Please use caution with information found in these databases. Do not accept anything unless you can prove it yourself. Keep an open mind and look at this material only as a guide. Look for clues for further research and you will enjoy working on your Murphree family tree. GEDCOM files can be downloaded and imported into your genealogy program. RootsMagic is my favorite genealogy software but you should be able to import these GEDCOM files into your own favorite program. Import this data into a separate file. Don't contaminate your valuable records until you have proven the facts to meet accepted genealogical standards.
This information will not prove your descendancy from Daniel Murphree. For purposes of this posting, data has been included even though proof or sources were not available.
