His mother, who was partly Spanish, was named after her godmother, the Infanta Eulalia of Spain; her father was the third son of Joseph Robert Heaven (1840–1911), of the Forest of Birse, Aberdeenshire, JP and wife Doña Maria Guadelupe Ramirez de Arellano y Braceras, 4th Marquesa de Braceras, and her paternal uncle was Francis Joseph Heaven (1877–), Conde de Ramirez de Arellano, Majordomo-in-waiting to King Alfonso XIII of Spain and Secret Chamberlain to Pope Leo XIII and to Pope Pius X, and who bears his title (one of his mother's family titles) by Royal Spanish letters patent and enrolled in the papal nobility.

Educated at Beaumont College, he was the son of Edward John Drummond-Murray of Mastrick (1907–1976) by (div. 1936) Eulalia Ildefonsa Wilhelmina Heaven (d. 1988), daughter of William Anthony Raymond Heaven (1873–), of Ashfield, Queen's County, Ireland.

On his father's side, he was descended from the Murrays of Mastrick in Aberdeenshire and the Earls of Perth.

They had five children, one of whom is trade union official and former prominent communist Andrew Murray.

He worked as a banker and a stockbroker, but his passion was heraldry and history, in particular, the Jacobites who numbered among his ancestors, including William Drummond, 4th Viscount Strathallan.

He was also active in charity; he founded a volunteer service to help provide meals on wheels and transport for the housebound.

When the nuns at one of Mother Teresa's Scottish hostels had trouble with guests, Drummond-Murray of Mastrick slept in the hostel once a week to keep an eye on things.

In 1993, Drummond-Murray of Mastrick published Blood of the Martyrs (1993), a list of the martyr ancestors of the British Knights of Malta.

At the time of his death, he was working on a book to be called A Roll of Banners and Standards of the Order of St John in England.

Amongst many others, he prepared the petition to Lord Lyon King of Arms dated 18 February 2009 which enabled the grant to Anne Lillian Dawes [now Edgar] of the arms with crest and motto of her ancestor Sir Edwyn Sandys Dawes KCMG, with a crescent for difference to be matriculated 16 December 2009.
