==Personal life==
James Leroy Murrill was born on January 5, 1847, in Nelson County, Virginia. His father was a teacher, preacher, farmer, and a railroad boss. When James Leroy Murrill was 17, he enlisted into the army of northern Virginia in 1863. He was in 3rd regiment Company H of the Virginia Kemper Brigade/Terry's Brigade, which took part in the major campaigns all the way up to Robert E. Lee's surrender at the Appomattox Court House which was only 17 miles from Murrill's home. After the war Murrill moved to Baltimore, Maryland, where he worked in his uncle's factory, The Murrill and Keizer Company, on 212 Holliday street next door to the Baltimore City Hall. He worked there as a mechanist, while he was going to the Maryland Institute for Mechanical Drawling.
When James Murrill graduated from The Maryland Institute of Mechanical Drawling, he was granted the Peabody Prize for his achievements while he was working his way up the ranks at the factory at the same time. He became an incredible mechanical drawler. Murrill taught at the institute for 4 years. Later, he became the school commissioner from 1887-1891.
