Sarah, Thank you very much for the Morrison info. Will check out the library for the books. ----Original Message Follows---- From: "Sarah Keesee" <[email protected]> Reply-To: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [NCMECKLE] McEwen Family Date: Tue, 31 Aug 1999 00:22:28 -0700 Verna, I've checked my books "Genealogies" by Anna Morrison Wilson, "They Married Confederate Officers" by Kathy Herran, "Descendants of Robert and Sarah Morrison of Rocky River" by Alice Marie and Janet Sue Morrison, and the William A. Graham Papers" Southern Historical collection, UNC Chapel Hill, the Wilson Library. None of these show a Washington Morrison. And yet there is a family connection to the Washingtons. Mary Graham, who m. Rev. Robert Hall Morrison, D.D. had a brother, Gov William Alexander Graham of Hillsboro, Orange Co., N.C. m. Susannah Sarah Washington, the dau of John Washington & w. Elizabeth Heritage Cobb (dau of Jesse Cobb & w. Elizabeth Heritage), and Dr. Morrison and wife Mary Graham named a daughter Susan Washington Morrison who m. Judge Alfonso Calhoun Avery. You might try another two books by Alice Marie and Janet Sue Morrison of the two brothers of Robert Morrison & w. Sarah above. They are John Morrison m Mary Morrison (his cousin) and James Morrison m Jennet Morrison (his cousin). The three were the sons of William Morrison & Janet Hall of Scotland. You may find these in the library or if you're interested, I can give you the sisters addresses. I'm sorry I wasn't able to be of more help.
