Distinguished Citizen 1981

Lula Brunswick (Darr) McMurry (1891 – 1969) Distinguished Citizen 1981

Brunswick: 100 Years of Memories (1990) McMurry, Lula B. Darr (1891-1969) Honored 1981 After Brunswick experienced years of inactivity in home building, Lula Brunswick (Darr) McMurry began developing 13 acres of the Cannon Hill area, along 2nd Avenue (then Linden) between Souder Road and H Street. Her early involvement in real estate came after the death of her husband, John Anthony McMurry, in 1934, when she began buying, refurbishing and renting or selling houses during the Great Depression, when home sales were at rock bottom. She gave special consideration to widows and low-income families in providing them apartments and enabling them to buy homes. Building in Brunswick had virtually stagnated, but after her construction on Cannon Hill, a local builder acquired the Haines property, south of hers, and the housing boom in Brunswick was on its way.
