"Fate" was a son of John A & Frances Louisa Taylor Morrison. His siblings were Lizzie, Sarah Margaret, Franklin Burton, Mulhulda, Lucinda, Frances Jane and Florence Essie Morrison.

He married Louteshia Green on 6 January 1893. Their children were Fannie Ada, Ida Malinda, Charlie Howell, Etta May and Ethel Wray.

(Grandpa Fate's age was listed as 21 on his marriage license in 1893, which means his date of birth would have been 1872. His tombstone carries the date, 1870, and the Federal Census for Gaston County in 1880 lists his age as 3 years. With the order of birth of his siblings, I believe the census records have his correct birth year and have chosen to list 1877 as the year of his birth.)
