All I have found are death records at this point. If anyone knows where I can find further information it would be greatly appreciated. I need to know where he was born and who his parents were. This is important to my family because after the 1930 census records of our Acil just stop and no one in my immediate line ever met him....we just know he existed. I'm new to doing genealogy research in other states and have no idea where to look anymore.

Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/pBC.2ACE/1784.1788.1.1 Message Board Post: Great to hear from you so soon and of your project at hand. Miss Julia Morgan Harding (1854-1943) of Pittsburgh was a great-great-grand-daughter of Col. George Morgan. She was the daughter of Lavinia Maria Morgan who married Capt. Ebenezer Denny Harding of Pittsburgh. Lavinia Maria Morgan (1832-1909) was the daughter of Col. James Bunyan Morgan who married Susan Mountain. Col. James Bunyan Morgan (1796-1889) was the eldest son of Gen. John Morgan who married Margaret Bunyan. And Gen. John Morgan (1770-1817) was the eldest son of Col. George Morgan. Miss Julia Morgan Harding did indeed read her paper entitled "Col. George Morgan, His Family and His Times" before the Washington County Historical Society (in Washington, Pa.), on May 19th, 1904. A front-page full-text account appeared in the May 21st, 1904, edition of the Washington "Observer." Miss Harding's original annotated copy of that account is in the archives of the Washington County Historical Society, and I have a copy of it. Miss Harding had one brother, Maj. Edward Harding (1856-1913) who married Jane Elizabeth Cooper. Their son, James Bunyan Morgan Harding (1886-1963) who married Mildred Oberteuffer, was my grandfather, through my mother Mrs. Mildred Harding Craig. Miss Julia Morgan Harding's "Collection of letters, notes and other papers of and relating to Col. George Morgan and the Morgan family, especially a notebook of copies of Morgan letters now lost " and extractions from old family Bibles, hand-copied circa 1874-1905, as cited by Max Savelle in 1932, was left to her nephew, my grandfather, James Bunyan Morgan Harding, and in turn to my mother, and more recently, to me, her son. I would be happy to provide you with copies of several good accounts of the Col.'s New Madrid project, as well as Max Savelle's typewritten copy of his 1927 paper entitled "George Morgan, Esquire: Gentleman of the American Revolution" for presentation before the American History Conference of Columbia University, a precursor to his 1932 "Colony Builder." And some family tree schematics you might find helpful, Col. George Morgan's obituary, and of course the obit of dear Maria Woodbridge (Morgan) Watson. I'm in the midst of final edits of a long-in-the-works Morgan Family History, and would be happy to provide you with copies of anything you might find helpful. Jay Feldman's recent "When The Mississippi Ran Backwards" has some good detail of Col. Morgan's planned utopia at New Madrid. Enthusiastically at your service, a great-great-great-great-great-grandson of Col. George Morgan, John Alexander Craig

I wonder if you could tell me exactly how Julia Harding, who is supposedly a grandchild of Col. Morgan, comes in. Who were her parents? You perhaps recall Julia read a paper about Col. Morgan to the Washington Co. Historical Society in May 1904. This article was subsequently published in the Washington Co. Pa. Observer May 21, 1904. Also, I am sure you are familiar with Max Savelle's works on Col. Morgan, founder of New Madrid, Missouri. Thank you. Mary Sue Anton, New Madrid, Missouri native

Two girls - Marita (Martha) Melstveit, b. Sept. 29 1887 and Inger Storås (b. 1883) emigrated in 1904. Their first destination was Willmar, Kandiyohi Co.,Minnesota. Later on, we know Inger moved to King County. She is found where in the 1910 census in Seattle at 6th Presinst, in 1920 census at Kennydale Pricinot and in 1930 census in Seattle City. Inger (Engel) was married to Johannes Flatabø (b. 1879). Their children was Helga Flatabo b. 1906 in Minnesota, Borghild (Beekel) Flatabo b. 1907 in Washington, Eric Flatabo b. 1910 in Washington and Ingrid Flatabo b. 1915 in Washington. Flatabo have been spelled like Flatabo, Fletebo, Flateboe and Fletcher. At arriving at Ellis Island Martha is listing Christine Skaalheim as her relative/friend. She was married to John Skaalheim. I am searching Marita or Martha (she might have been called so in US), but if I could find any information on the other families, it might help me finding Martha. Martha might have used the second name Amundson as her maiden name. Martha had two sons.

I have been in contact with Bob Kleine in the past and have confirmed our connection. I have never found Mary listed as Ann. Where did you find that information? I have been looking for information on her for many years. Do you know her maiden name? Could Ann have been a middle name? Do you know when she came to this country? Do you know where in Ireland she was born and where they came into this country. I have been trying to find naturalization papers for them and I have looked at many, many passenger lists without success. Any information you could give me would be greatly appreciated.
I would be most grateful if someone could look up Daniel F. Kimball and his wife, Margaret E. Kimball, in the Renton City Directories for the period 1970 - 1986. Daniel died in 1975 so Margaret may be listed under her own name after 1975. many thanks Robin Essen Germany
