    Notes:

    Kenneth Morgan reported that his grandfather, Thomas Marion Morgan, loved his "Uncle Mal" and spent much time in his household when he was growing up. He said Mal was a sleepwalker, and the boys tried to watch out for him at night to prevent him from getting hurt. Early one morning, Mal asked the boys to go with him to their field across the creek to bring a turning plow back to the garden. When they arrived at the field the plow was missing, and they began to study tracks closely in the plowed ground. They found Mal's barefoot tracks where he had picked up the plow and walked across the creek on a log. Arriving back at the garden near the house they found the plow. Mal remembered nothing about the trip in the moonlight.

Generation: 4

  1. 8.  John Morgan was born between 1798 and 1800 in North Carolina (son of Rueben Morgan and Dorcus Newton); died before 1840.

    Notes:

    John was said to have died in South Carolina before his family moved to Georgia. However, since he was married in Georgia he probably actually died after the move to Georgia, but before the family moved on to Texas and Florida.It appears that he did die prior to the 1840, because his widow, Hannah Morgan is listed as the head of household in the "1840 Decatur County Georgia Census Index " (Frances T. Ingmire, Mountain Press).

    John's five children, along with a 28 year old "Mrs. Morgan," are listed in the 1850 Decatur County, GA census in household #521. They live nearby to the McLemores, Boyetts, Morgans, and Kellys. It appears that John may have remarried, as his apparent widow, age 28, was too young to be the mother of any but the very youngest of his five children, who ranged in age from 14 to 23. This potential second wife would have been born circa 1822.

    The online Decatur County, Georgia census for 1850 lists the family as follows:

    521 521
    Morgan Mrs.? 28 F SC
    Morgan Malachi 23 M Laborer GA
    Morgan Wm. 18 M Laborer GA
    Morgan Maria 20 F GA
    Morgan Reubin 16 M Laborer GA
    Morgan Martha 14 F GA

    John married Hannah Kelley on 1 Mar 1827 in Decatur County, Georgia. Hannah (daughter of Malachi Kelley and Sarah Singletary) was born before 1810 in South Carolina; died after 1840. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  2. 9.  Hannah Kelley was born before 1810 in South Carolina (daughter of Malachi Kelley and Sarah Singletary); died after 1840.

    Notes:

    From the marriage records, and from the estate settlement of her father, Malachi Kelley, it appears that John Morgan was married to Hannah Kelley, and that she was the mother of his children. Hannah Morgan is listed as living next door to Malachi Kelly in Decatur County, Georgia at the time of the 1840 federal census.

    Her household was composed of the following members:
    2 males 5-10
    1 male 10-15
    1 female under 5
    1 female 5-10
    1 female 20-30

    It appears from the 1850 Decatur County, Georgia census, that Hannah may have also died before 1850, as her children are living with a 28 year old "Mrs. Morgan." Unless her age is in error, however, the woman listed on the census appears to be too young to be the mother of the children.

    The Estate of Malichi Kelley (Hannah's father) was probated in 1857, and Hannah was not an heir. However, two of her children Malichi Morgan and Kizzie Morgan were heirs. It would therefore appear that Hannah Kelley Morgan died sometime before 1857. There was, however, a Hannah Morgan who was granted a land patent for 252 acres of land in Jasper County, Texas on October 23, 1858 (Patent #204. Vl 18, File No 156). Could this possibly be a different Hannah Morgan?

    Children:
    1. 4. Malachi Morgan was born on 14 May 1828 in Decatur County, Georgia; died on 4 May 1915 in Jasper, Jasper County, Texas; was buried in Zion Hill Cemetery, Jasper, Jasper County, Texas.
    2. Maria Morgan was born about 1830 in Decatur County, Georgia; and died.
    3. William Morgan was born about 1832 in Decatur County, Georgia; died before 1860.
    4. Rueben L. Morgan was born about 1834 in Decatur County, Georgia; died on 20 May 1864 in Little Rock, Pulaski County, Arkansas.
    5. Sarah Martha Morgan was born about 1836 in Georgia; and died.

  3. 14.  William McFarlane was born before 1794; and died.

    William married Christian "Crissa" Jane Price. Christian was born about 1794 in Virginia; died about 1874 in Jasper County, Texas; was buried in Zion Hill Cemetery, Jasper, Jasper County, Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  4. 15.  Christian "Crissa" Jane Price was born about 1794 in Virginia; died about 1874 in Jasper County, Texas; was buried in Zion Hill Cemetery, Jasper, Jasper County, Texas.
