Danny, Since you are a good source of information on Cannon County in the War, give me a timeline. Did anything happen around March 6, 1862 in Cannon County ? Denise and I come from Allen Morgan. Allen died about this time. I had noticed when I was looking into his Estate being filed a month later, there were several men who had died just about this same time and their Estates were being filed also.

I remember a woman who was writing in on her Murphys, siad her James Murphy, who came from Ireland, was a fence builder in Cannon County prior to the War.

My Great GRanfather was born in 1853 near Locke Creek, so I suspect the Story was handed down from him about the fence. What would be interesting to have, would be a War Between the States Site on our Cannon County info. People could contribute their info to this on their Ancestors. It is most interesting because the County was split in the War.

Thanks Danny !! I remember standing on the old road in front of Riverside Cemetery about 6 years ago and thought to myself how many of our ancestors traveled this very road. How many looked at the same hills etc we see now. How many left their homes in Woodbury and moved to Texas, etc after the War, never to return, using this very road we look at. I hope they continue to keep up the old road in the future. It has been discussed, within my family, they might be able to bring me down to Cannon County this summer sometime on a short visit. I want to meet a lot of you while there.

About 40 years ago, I was with my Dad. We had visted Riverside Cemetery in Woodbury. On the way into town, my Dad showed me a rock fence along side the old road, somewhere before we had entered town. My Dad said his father had told him before 1932, this rock fence was built during the War Between the States. I can barely remember it. Seems like it was around a waterway. Does anyone know if this is still there On Carl's " Our Morgan Family " Book. Carl spent time transcribing the Pension of John Morgan from the Archives. A witness in 1834 to his Pension in McMinnville was Archaleus Prater, Minister. Kevin Morgan

I have received several requests for lookups inthe new book by Carl Davenport. The book is available online at www.trafford.com Carl has donated sevral to the libraries so it can be accessed. I am unable to do lookups. I am legally blind due to diabetes and I can only look at the PC screen ten minutes at a time. The strain is too much to do lookups. Thanks, Kevin Morgan

There are always possibilities. John Morgan Sr had many sons. Since they followed the Cumberland River to come to Warren County. I have submitted my DNA to the " Morgan Surname DNA Project " under Allen Morgan. The basic 12 marker test for Males is $ 99.00. Before 1850, it is hard to associate families. The Head of the House was the only one listed in the Census. It takes time and knowledge to go to State and County sources to look up documents where names were listed in Wills, Land Sales, etc. This is where Carl did his best work. He went to Virginia and Illinois to obtain the information on John Sr and John Jr. I cannot tell you how much time and expense Carl has spent on this Book. I am bragging on this because I had only seen bits and pieces of it for the last three years. To see it all is just amazing. I think I am related to just about every family in Cannon County now. I could attend all the Family Reunions. Carl has donated thrre copies of the Book to the Libraries at Woodbury, Murfreesboro and McMinnville. You may wish to stop by and look at them. There are three volumes. Look like three phone books. There is a index in the back. Just go to Googlr and type the Morgan Surname DNA Project and it will come up.

I want to Thank You also Denise Morgan Bingham. Denise lives in Arkansas You can tell a person of God ! They give and give more. I had begged my living Morgan Families in Cannon County for information to give Carl to put in this Book. These Morgans would never reply to me or have anything to do with me. Not a one of them ! Denise is the only one who would contribute. If it was not for her, a large section of the Morgan Family would not have been in this Book. Someday I will find a Picture of my Robert Allen Morgan.
