ITV’s Border Life tells the story of the McMurray photographs
Thanks to ITV’s Border Life the story of William McMurray and his photographic collection has been brought to homes across the Borders TV area.
The programme was richly illustrated with many of William McMurray’s photographs including one of young James McMurray, seen playing his violin, just a few short years before he was killed in the First World War. On a happier note we see the McMurray brothers on early motor bikes and some of the first cars in Gatehouse as well as shots of the town and several family groups.
