Lon married January 10, 1914 in Gentry, Putnam County, Tennessee to Lassie Fletcher, who was born on October 12, 1882 and died May 28, 1967 she was the daughter of Lewis Henry and Martha H. (Denny) Fletcher. Lon and Lassie were both buried at Rock Springs Methodist Church (Faith Chapel) cemetery in Putnam County, Tennessee, and they had no children. Alonzo Morrow was known as "Lon". As a young man, Lon and his brother Thomas went to California to work in the shipyards. When he returned to Tennessee he purchased a 64 acre farm on St. Mary's Road, Rock Springs, just down the road from the Denny Farm. He paid $3,700 for the farm and later sold it for the same amount to Mr. Kenneth Pullum. Kenneth used to cut his hair and was a friend of Lon and Lassie Morrow. An interesting story related by Hazel Carlen Bates goes as follows. Alonzo did his banking in Cookeville (bank was run by the Carlen's who were kin). One day the bank "returned for insufficient funds" a small check which Alonzo had written. Alonzo asked Kenneth Pullum to drive him into Cookeville to the bank. When they arrived Alonzo began to "read the riot act" to the bankers. He had about $1,500 in their bank and demanded it be given to him in cash. At first they tried to talk him out of closing his account, and then they said they would give him a cashier's check. He said "I put in cash and I want my money in cash". They finally gave him his money in cash which he stuck in all of the pockets of his overalls. When they left the bank he asked Kenneth to drive him to Carthage in Smith County where he put his money in the bank and conducted his banking business there for the remainder of his life. Kenneth said he was "scared to death" t hat someone might "hold them up" with all of this money in cash but fortunately the transaction was completed without incident. J.T. Askew, Silver Point, Tennessee tells of playing baseball when he was a boy and Lon Morrow (approx age 75) played center field.
