Jay and Martha Patricia Murray were married in 1938 and became parents of four children, Patty O'Malley Conley, Michael Murray O'Malley, James C. O'Malley, Jr., and Mary Ann O'Malley Precthl. Mike is the lumber sales manager for Mallco Distributors and son-inlaw Paul Conley is active in the retail division.
The O'Malley name has been carried throughout the company by the sons, grandsons, and great grandsons of the founders of The O'Malley Companies. Jay's grandfather, James, came to this country at 18 from Ireland in 1868 by way of Scotland where the family had moved to escape the potato famine of the 1850s. He joined an older brother, Edward, and an uncle in St. Louis, Mo. A short time later he started work at a lumber yard where Ed was employed and later in another yard where he was paid the going rate for a full day's work, $2.50.
James married Kate Malone and their third son, John G., who was to be the father of Jay, was born the year they bought a lumber yard in Lexington, Mo., 1877. In the next 30 years the O'Malley brc,thers bought and sold eleven lumber yards, moving steadily West in the post Civil War boom. In 1908 they bought DeMund Lumber Co. in Phoenix, the start of The O'Malleys as entrepreneurs in Arizona.
With The O'Malley Companies well into their second 100 years of existence, Jay can be assured that, although retirement is near for him, the name will be carried on. Perhaps the O'Malley family crest with the motto "Fearless on Land and Sea" should include "and in the lumber and building supply business."
