In 1834 she was united in marriage to Joshua Morgan. To the union was born 7 children, five boys and 2 girls, four of whom survive, 2 sons, Alponso and Sidney, live near Jennings, Ia., Spencer near Shambaugh, and their sister Florence, wife of D.D. Remington, at Steward, Neb. One daughter died in infancy. Jerome died in the south in the service of his country in the civil war. Chas. died in Lakuaithen, La, in 1895. Grandma Morgan deserves great credit for her patriotism, as she sent four of her sons to defend and preserve her country and flag. Mr Morgan died in 1850 when the youngest child was but six months old, leaving the support and education of the family to the mother. She leaves four children, 17 grandchildren, 3 great grandchildren to mourn her departure, besides a number of relatives and a host of friends behind. Her life will be an inspiration to all to meet her in the happy beyond. She died in the triumph of a living faith in her Savior. Rev Buckner was called to preach the funeral, as he was a special friend of Mr Morgan. Rev Ross of College Springs and Rev Smith also assisted in the services.
