Hi Fred, According to the "History of Grundy County, 1914", Morris was named in honor of the "Hon. Isaac N. Morris". A quick scan of the material in this book did not produce any additional info regarding Isaac Morris. If I find anything, I will let you know. Good luck, Deb -----Original Message----- From: fred Morris [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, January 25, 1999 11:04 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [ILGRUNDY-L] MORRIS Can anyone tell me the origin of the town of Morris? My Morris's were known to be in Will County in 1855, did they maybe cross over into Grundy County as well? Fred Morris
