Not sure if this might be of interest - but the grave is near to that of Percy P and Mary  ???

There is an entry on the same elink DB gave above for a George L Murphy - Section 2 - Plot U - Grave 47 for a George L Murphy who passed away aged 85 years in 1962 -

http://www.ccchalifax.com/interm/search_view.cfm?IntermID=25158

Could that be George L Murphy Snr  ???

George L Murphy, died 1962 in Lake Milo, Yarmouth County  ???

The death certificate gives parents as Michael Murphy and Tereasa Crocken. George was a traveller.
