Speculation Grows Over Rockefeller Marriage Rumors
In New York AP reports public speculation that Governor Nelson A Rockefeller may have married. The 54 year old Republican, recently divorced, has offered no comment on the rumors or his own split. Margaretta Murphy, 36, is linked as the possible spouse, while her ex husband Dr. Spied S. Murphy, 41, works as a medical researcher for the Rockefeller Institute. A three week gap in Rockefeller’s official schedule fueled chatter as Albany buzzed about a possible marriage occurring, despite the governor’s silence.
