Their son, Peter, was born December 1, 1861 and baptized at St. Patrick's within a few weeks. There was no information on William's parents. Is Termonamongan near Bodeny or Crouck Morris? William, 30 and Rose, 29 (both list coming to US in 1865) had the following children in 1870 census living in Philadelphia: Peter, 9 Mary A., 7 (born at sea) Patrick, 5 William, 3 Hugh, 10 months. Sometime after this they moved to a farm in Darby, PA which eventually became Yeadon, PA. The house was in the family until the early 1970s. Thank you for reading and please let me know if this meshes with anything that you are researching.

There are several Morris' listed in Griffiths Evaluation in Termonamongan parish. Townlands of Ardarver, First Cogary, Second Corgary and Garvagh Pullans. Names include, Michael, James, Peter, Eliza and Owen (no William though). Griffiths carried out the survey during the 1850's so it was likely that one of the above was a parent of a teenage William prior to his marriage. Do a Family Name search here and include the county and parish. http://griffiths.askaboutireland.ie/gv4/gv_start.php Check the Details, Original Page and Map (takes a bit of zooming and searching to find the Townland). If you can't find the townland look for the link to a second map at the bottom of the map page. My guess is that William was the son of one of the above. ---------------------------- Barry Graham Melbourne, Australia
