Research Note:
Helen Marr Forrest (1880-1957) (with husband Jacob Clarence Hershey) must be related to Joseph Kepler Murdock due to Murdock home-movies of them together from at least 1929 to 1946 and due to their common family surname of "Forrest". However, as of 2021 research, a document proving genealogy connection could not be found. Following is what is known about the missing connection between them.

  • Joseph Kepler Murdock son of Forrest Oscar Murdock, son of Annie Markle Kepler, daughter of Maria W. Forrest (1810-1852), who MUST BE a child of James Biddle Forrest Sr. (1784-1841) BUT document not found yet.
  • Helen Marr Forrest, daughter of James Biddle Forrest II, son of George Washington Forrest (1817-1887), son of James Biddle Forrest Sr. (1784-1841) MUST HAVE had Maria W. Forrest (1810-1852) as a child, BUT document not found yet.
  • Based on the above, I added Maria W. Forrest as a child of James Biddle Forrest Sr. (Lucius Donkle III)
