On the one "S".... My great grandfather and his three brothers immigrated into Elkhorn, Wisconsin, 1855ish from Woodstown, County Waterford area. My GG was William and his bro's were Pat, Dan and Mike.They spelled it MORRISSEY except William, who always spelled his name with one "S". Always. But all of his children and his wife always used two "S". The whole family is buried in Mt Olivet cemetery in Elkhorn, with 7 of the 8 kids, and a nice big stone says "MORRISEY" and it was erected by the last kid to die, Lizzy. She left a note which said "I am having the name on the stone spelled with one "S" for daddy's sake. He always said, being the youngest of those boys, they picked on him a lot, and kicked the "S" out of him." Slainte, Tim [email protected] wrote: >Hello, >I am the daughter of Richard J.
