    1. WILLIAM PRESTON MORROW 1857-1929 INDIANA TO ARKANSAS
    2. C. Holland
    3. Hi again! It's been awhile so will post this again in hopes that someone out there has information on WILLIAM PRESTON MORROW, born February 1857/1858 in INDIANA. According to census records, both of his parents were also born in Indiana. There are conflicting stories about William. One being that he was the sole survivor of an Indian attack as a boy, and the other is he may have had at least one sister, NANCY A/E MORROW, who married JAMES W. JONES, the brother of William Preston's wife, MELVINA JONES, and there was also an EDWARD MORROW in Scott County, Arkansas, who may have been related to William, and may have even been a brother. William was known to be in SCOTT COUNTY, ARKANSAS from about 1880-1883 until his death in 1929. Here are my Morrows: William Preston Morrow 1857-1929 IN-AR//Melvina Jones Benjamin Allen Morrow 1888-1974 Scott Co.,AR//Ollie C. Harris Charles Matthew Morrow 1912 AR-OK//Nancy Edith Phillips Charlene Lleretha Morrow 1937 Harlingen, TX-OR (ME) Here are the 1900 Scott County census records for both the William Preston Morrow and Edward Morrow families, which may help someone identify them. 1900 Hunt Twp, #86/86 William Morrow Hd Feb 1857 43 Md/20 IN IN IN Melvina Wf Dec 1860 39 5/5 AR AR AR Franklin I.C.
