释义 | George Crawford Murray (January 3, 1827 – November 27, 1884) was an American politician. Murray, the son of William W. and Mary (Crawford) Murray, was born in Middletown Township, New Jersey. He graduated from Yale College in 1845. After leaving college, he studied law in Trenton, New Jersey, and with the Honorable George Wood in New York City, where he was admitted to the bar in January 1849. He then pursued a course of study in analytical chemistry in the newly established school of applied chemistry at Yale, and in the summer of 1850 returned to his home in Middletown to engage in farming. He continued through life deeply interested in agricultural and analytical chemistry and in kindred scientific studies. He served for one year in the New Jersey State Legislature, but declined a re-nomination. Late in life he moved to Jersey City, New Jersey, where he died very suddenly, of paralysis of the heart, after having been for two months in feeble health, on Thanksgiving Day, November 27, 1884, aged nearly 58 years. He married on February 27, 1855, Mary C, daughter of James Cooper, of Middletown, who survived him. Their children were two daughters and a son. {{yaleobit|1885}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Murray, George Crawford}} 7 : 1827 births|1884 deaths|Politicians from Jersey City, New Jersey|People from Middletown Township, New Jersey|Yale University alumni|Members of the New Jersey Legislature|19th-century American politicians |
