Nicholas Murray (1802–1861) was Moderator of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America. Murray was born in Ballinasloe, County Galway, Ireland. In 1818, he emigrated to the United States, becoming an apprentice printer with Harper Brothers. Later in life, he was ordained a minister, and became Moderator of the Presbyterian General Assembly of America.
Murray wrote extensively of his travels and on archaeology, which was an abiding interest. An occasional pseudonym was Kirwan. He died and was buried in Elizabeth, New Jersey in 1861.
