Who is the Morgan Branches and Roots site for?
First of all, it's for you if you're related in anyway to the James Milton Morgan family whose roots are in Alabama or Georgia before 1880 or so. This Morgan family came through the War Between the States after suffering huge losses to their way of living and culture which resulted in many of their offspring moving to the early Texas frontier. From there we have spread literally around the world.
The photo above is the family of John Thomas (son of James Milton and Sarah Jane Carter Morgan) and Margaret Viola ('Ola) Knighton Morgan (daughter of Alexander M. Knighton) taken about about 1903 - with Ralph Olen being the youngest - born in 1901 - he looks about 1 1/2 to 2 yrs old here. The occasion may be for the 25th wedding anniversary of J.T. and Ola.
If photo was taken in January 1904 the children in order of their birth and age are:
Sallie, 29 December 1879 - 25 yrs old; Paschal, 28 July 1882 - 22; Oliver, 12 July 1887 - 17; Boniar, 21 June 1890 - 14; Edgar, 11 May 1893 - 11; Cecil, 12 February 1896 - 8; Warner, 2 September 1898 - 6; Ralph, 30 April 1901 - 3
Can you determine who's who?
