In 1781, Jeremiah Murry came from Ireland to Pennsylvania, then onto Franklin Township. He acquired land near the Turtle Creek and build a cabin and grist mill, and he kept store near the current location of the Presbyterian Church. Soon after the Northern Turnpike was constructed through this area in 1819, Murry established the town of Murrysville in 1820.
