    3. List Readers: Do any of you know who the father of Samuel Morgan was and possibly who some of his siblings were? He married in McMinn Co., TN, to Margaret VanZandt Dec. 20, 1829. I am told that he was born in Greene Co., TN, on July 17, 1810. His name was probably Samuel C. Morgan - but some Barry County researchers have him as Samuel Joshua Morgan. I have a feeling that is not correct. Anyone know? I would like to clear up the confusion on this if any of you can help it would be appreciated. 1830 United States Federal Census > Tennessee > McMinn > Not Stated Name: Morgan, Saml Township: Not Stated County: McMinn - State: Tennessee Year: 1830  Roll: 178 Page: 188 Saml Morgan 20-30 male: 1 20-30 female: 1 1840 United States Federal Census Samuel Morgan Township: Not Stated - County: Pulaski State: Missouri - Roll: 229 - Page: 216  1850 Barry Co., MO, October 11, 1850, page 225 House # 478: Morgan, Samuel 39, M, TN, Farmer Margaret 40, F, TN Vesta 17, F, TN Ishna, 14, M, TN ( Joshua) Zacri T., 2, M, TN (Zachary) Morgan Cemetery, Barry Co., MO Josephine B.
