The book traces the pedigree of a Scottish border family from the reign of Charles II, through ten generations to the present day. It begins with John Murray (1670-1720) a tenant farmer in Roxburghshire, and records the familyâ??s rise to prominence in the Victorian era and the emigration of its members to Australia, Canada, America and South Africa. John Murrayâ??s descendants were hardworking and ambitious for their families. Among the members of the family will be found a General who fought in the Indian Mutiny of 1856 and the editor of the Oxford English Dictionary.
