• Notes

  His middle initial on the 1850 census was hard to read. It could have been an I, F or J. In the 1860 census is looks more like an I or a T. It is definitely not an F or J in that later census. In the 1870 census it looks like a T. He was 17 in the 1860 census and a farm hand. He was born in Ohio. In the 1874 Atlas for Gallia Co., OH, he might be the E.J. Morgan that lives 2 sections below and one to the right of the J. Rees (his uncle?), in Perry Twp., Gallia Co., Ohio. Specifically he owned land in section 9 and below it in section 16 of Perry Twp. However, if this isn't him then the following info fits him well. There is an Edward T. Morgan in the 1880 census for Washington, Clermont Co., OH married to an Aletia that might be him. He was age 36, b. Ohio His parents were both born in Wales. His wife was age 33, born Kentucky. His children were named Harry, age 11; Bertha, age 9; Frank E., age 7; Charles O., age 4 and Grace, age 1 month. They were all born in Ohio. In the 1910 census, Edward T. Morgan, age 66 and his wife Aletia were living in Pottawatomie, VA. There is an Edward Morgan born 5/16/1843 who died on 12/19/1998 in Bonneville, Idaho who would also match him. A copy of his death record needs obtained to know if it stated that he was born in Ohio or who his parents were.
