Bell, age19, was listed as domestic in Union Township, Post Office Troy - daughter Samatha Morris, age 21, where-abouts are unknown, she is probably married by this time. -Sarah J. Bell married Dr. William Rosser a few years later -Sarah and Daniel Bell remained in the same area of Iowa The Thomas Morris household was in Hickory County, MO for the 1870 census. and in Davis county Iowa (same post office as 1860Van Buren) in 1880. -Harriet remained in MO and married Yeager, son of Eliajh Fisher Yeager. -Albert also remained in MO and married Martha McDowell, daughter of Andrew T. McDowell and Mary Coleman Other related MO families,:- Jedediah and Aaron Darby, -Reser, -Fisher, -Thomas Franklin Yeager -Garr -Albert Morris ended up just over the Hickory County line in Urban, Dallas Co, MO. I have all of the Yeager family information, and M Y B R I C K W A L L is my Morris line back from Thomas Morris, born 1815 someplace in Ohio. Thomas a widower married Mary Crab Bell Morris in Jefferson CO, Ohio in 1849. Mary was a widow of Daniel S. Bell, and had two surviving children from her marriage to Daniel Bell, Daniel S. Bell, Jr. and Sarah J. Thomas had a surviving daughter named Samantha from his first marriage. He may have been married to a Seleany Longfellow in Morgan CO, Ohio prior to 1840. Any Morris information would be a treasure. Sincerely, Corlee Ann Morris Great great grand daughter of Thomas and Mary Morris
