Show JAN 14 1980 on the northwest corner of E Street and South Temple where the Brigham Street Pharmacy was later located. His son, William, managed the co-op while he was in Scotland. On his return, he established the Murdoch Grocery on F Street through the block from their home. Groceries were delivered from their store to the mansions on South Temple Street occupied by the Kearns, Bambergers, Traceys, Keiths, Collins T , and Dooleys. Mr.Murdoch kept fine Jersey cows in a red barn behind his home and Mary Murdoch recalls taking a milk can on either handlebar of her bicycle down to the Keith home as "David Keith had to have the very best of milk". Mr. Murdoch was active in the IDS Twentieth Ward as Seventys Group Leader. Mrs. Murdoch had a lovely singing voice and served as ward organist for many years. Some of the Murdoch family occupied the house until 1954 at which time the home was sold to Platt Realty and was used as a residence for aged persons. It was at this period that the added on portion at the rear of the home extending through both floors was attached. The house is now used as office space. |
