Hello Barb,  I enjoyed our conversation on the phone, thank you for offering to help me with Isaac Martin Murphy and also looking into my Maroskey family in Franklin Twp., Marion Co. IN.  Your help is very much appreciated!                        Kind Regards, Greg Murphy

Also adding the memorial for my paternal 2nd great-grandfather, Anthony Henry Maroskey, he and brother Charles Maroskey (Maroska) first settled in Franklin Twp. Marion County, Indiana.  Both families migrated to Hancock County, Indiana.  I lived on the Maroskey farm, 1/2 mile north of Mohawk in Buck Creek Twp. until I was 5 years old (1953).  Dad bought a house in Mohawk where I was raised until I "ran away from home" at 21 yrs. old, as my dad would say.
