From census records and her husband, Morgan's obituary, it appears they had no children. His obituary gives her maiden name and that he traveled to Hazleton where he met & married Ellen about 1856.

She is mentioned in the obituary for her mother, Catharine Lawall, from the Standard Speaker, Hazleton, Pennsylvania, Oct. 26, 1889. She is listed as Mrs. Major(instead of Morgan) Whiston of Wyoming.

She was buried in her husband's parents' plot. Her gravestone is broken in three pieces and I was fortunate that the caretaker helped me roll the part with her name on it over.
