John Morgan , Montgomery County, VA abt 1790-1818
I am searching for descendants of and information on John Morgan. He was a Revolutionary War veteran. He applied for a pension in 1834 while living in Warren County, TN. In the application he states that he was born June 24, 1754 in Culpepper County, VA. He volunteered for service in January 1776 while living in Surry County, NC. He served 2 years and moved to Shenandoah County, VA where his father was living. About 1779 he enlisted again and was discharged Nov. 6, 1781. He lived in Montgomery County, VA 30 years before moving to Warren County, TN. He was in Warren County no later than 1818. He died January 8, 1835.
His wife's name was Elizabeth. She is with him in 1830 but is not found after this time. Some of his children have been identified.
William Morgan married Mary (Polly) Songer Aug. 8, 1813 in Montgomery County, VA., John Morgan Surety. He is in Warren County, TN at the time of the 1820 census but left before the 1830 census. He probably moved to Fountain County, IN.
George Songer married Jane (Jinney) Morgan Aug. 30, 1815 in Montgomery County, VA., John Morgan surety. They moved to Rutherford County, TN and are listed in the 1820 census. They moved to Fountain County, IN. All of their children are known. This family has been well researched and many descendants are known.
John Lemmons married Elizabeth Morgan July 7, 1807 in Montgomery County, VA., John Morgan surety. They moved to Warren County, TN and are in the 1820 census. John died in 1828. Elizabeth died sometime after 1870. Most of their children moved to Arkansas. A few stayed in Warren County.
All children and many, many descendants are known.
Hiram Wilson married Mary Morgan Aug. 30, 1815 in Montgomery County, TN., John Morgan Surety. They are in Warren County, TN in the 1830 census. Cannon County, TN was formed in 1836 and included the area where these Wilsons lived. Most, if not all, of their children have been identified. Many descendants are still in the area.
Lydia Morgan. John Morgan gave his home and farm to Lydia whom he calls his daughter. She appears to have lived with him until he died.
John Morgan, Jr. There is a marriage record for John Morgan and Martha Kirby in Montgomery County, VA. Nov. 3, 1801. David Willis Surety. Jonh Morgan appears in the 1810 census in Montgomery County, VA. John Morgan, Sr. is also there. John Morgan appears in the 1830 census in Warren County, TN. He is gone by the 1840 census. I think that this is the same one who was in Montgomery County, VA and that he was the son of John Morgan, Sr. I have not been able to find him after he left TN.
There is an Abraham Morgan in Warren County, TN in the 1820 and 1830 census. He apparently moved out of TN. I have not been able to find him after he left. This name is not among the known grandchildren of John Morgan but may be his son.
I think that John Morgan had 4-5 other children. I will appreciate any information on this family that anyone can provide.
