Mary Eliza Murphy was born in Pembroke, Ontario on December 15, 1877. She is the daughter of:
JAMES MURPHY, of Ontario -and-
SUSAN JAMES, who had immigrated from Ireland
She was one of six children born to James and Susan Murphy.
*William Murphy
*Mary Murphy
*Jerry Murphy
*George Murphy
*Billa Murphy
*Benjamin Murphy
In 1894 the family moved to Regina, Saskatchewan. Then, in 1896 they moved to Rocanville, Saskatchewan and homesteaded the SE 32-16-31. Her parents remained there until 1908, when they moved to British Columbia.
On a very cold day in December, 1897, Mary Murphy of Rocanville District married James Thomson Mulberry. They stayed overnight in the Queen's Hotel in Moosomin, driving home with horses the next day.
Seven children were born to them:
• ETHEL BELLE MULBERRY(Denzin)(1898-1976)
• EDITH ANNIE MULBERRY (Rutherford)(1900-1995)
• MILDRED MAY MULBERRY (Soyka; Meyrick) (1902-1991)
• ERNEST 'GERALD' MULBERRY (1904- Deceased)
• HELEN 'SUSIE' GRACE MULBERRY (Croll) (1906-)
• WINNIFRED JANE MULBERRY (Phillips; Campbell) (1908-1972)
• GORDON LEONARD MULBERRY (1909-Deceased)
In 1909, James T. Mulberry built the butcher shop in town which he ran for several years. The winter of 1910-11 he had the typhoid fever, as did children Ethel & Millie. The rest of the family stayed with neighbors until the epidemic was passed. The North Hamona Hill was built in 1910. Mary boarded the men who worked there. They stabled the horses in a large white tent; the horses in one end, the men sleeping in cots in the other end.
In the spring of 1921 James T. Mulberry exchanged his farm for Doctor Weaver's house in town. There, Mary ran a private boardinghouse and later did practical nursing under Dr. Gilbart's supervision. James T. passed away in 1938. Mary passed away in 1945. They will be remembered for their hospitality. They were good friends and neighbors.
Mary E. Murphy Mulberry is buried next to her husband James Thomson Mulberry in the Spy Hill Cemetery, Saskatchewan.

1. Mary Mulberry (1861-1920) Sister of James T. Mulberry
2. Mary E. Murphy Mulberry (1878-1945)- Wife of James T. Mulberry
