Sons of Zackariah and Sarah Elniro Herlong Murphrey - Capers Henry b. 1872, Colier, b 1885, and Elbert b. 1889
Suggested edit: Zachariah Murphrey's year of death is probably 1921. The 1920 Census, Ward 6, Ouachita Parish, Louisiana dated June 6, 1920 list Zachariah as being 77. His daughter and grandchildren are living with him. I believe he died on February 9th but not 1920 but 1921.
