Mur-iohs.— Meyer, Nach dem Sacramento, 282, 1855. Muruam. A former Texas tribe, numer- ous members of which were baptized dur- ing the first half of the 18th century at the San Antonio missions. One individual by this name was liaptized in 1707 at Mission San Francisco Solano, on the Rio Grande. At San Antonio their liajitism was first recorded under “ Baptisms of the llyer- bipiamos” (Frvij)iames) with those of the Frvipiames destined for Mission San Xavier de Naxera, called the “ Ilyerbipi- amo suburb” (1721-26). The records show that in their gentile state tlie Mu- ruam intermarried with these Frvipiames, who were Tonkawan, and who came from Rancherfa Grande (p. v.). This points to the conclusion that the Muruam were Tonkawan. A diliicultv is raised, how- ever, by the faet that at the Frvipiame suburb were also numerous Ticmamares, some of which tribe had been baptized at San Francisco Solano mi.'jsion and were apparently natives of that region (Records of Mission San xVntonio de Valero, MS.). After 1726 the Muruam neophytes were incorporated underMis.sioiA’alero(ibid.). Their name is most frequently found in the baptismal liooks of this mission be- fore the year 1730, but members of the tribe were still living there as late as 1775.
