BTW, thanks for the reply.
There are several ways that family names are associated to clans. Some are by location, they paid rent for the land they lived on. Another popular scenario is protection reasons, which is related to the whole location possibility.

Do more research on your name and the Clan Murray, and you might find your answer.
