OriginalSource: The Republic (Columbus, Indiana) 5 July 1886, p. 4 - Miss Belle Murdock, of Indianapolis, is in city, the guest of her brother, W. S. Murdock, the photographer.

1887-88 Indiana State Gazetteer, p. 1330

The Republic (Columbus, Indiana), 21 June 1887, p. 4
Murdock, the photographer, steps high and declares that he can take a picture of a baby in less time than a wink now. He is the proud papa of a brand new girl and is the happiest man in town.

The Republic (Columbus, Indiana), 30 June 1887, p. 4 - W. S. Murdock, the photographer, did business in Indianapolis this morning / Murdock has added elegant piano to his handsome suite of rooms. It is queer, but never-the less true, that nin-tenths of the marriageable young ladies who have their pictures taken of Murdock, are married within a short time after the photos are distributed.

The Republic (Columbus, Indiana), 3 Aug. 1887, p. 4 - hatched chick under skylight

The Republic (Columbus, Indiana), 30 May 1888, p. 4 - ad for Murdock "Sit now and I will make you my finest cabinet photographs for $3.00 per dozen. You may begrudge the money now, but in one year you will value the Photographs at twenty times this amount."

ca. 1890 cabinet card: Wager, successor to Murdock, Columbus, Ind.
