General Notes: Husband - John Morgan
He was reared in Richland township, Clarion County, PA, and was educated in the schools of Foxburg. At the age of twenty-five he became interested in the oil business in Armstrong County, and was thereafter identified with that industry. For a time he carried on operations in Red Valley, Venango County, PA, but after taking up his residence in St. Petersburg, in 1877, he was principally employed in Richland township, Clarion County. About 1889, as a member of the firm of Fox & Morgan, he began operations in the Richey Run oil fields, and put down wells in the following order: on the Long and Wheeler tract, on the Kaufman property, the William Agnew, the Clark Agnew, and the William Jones farms, the Sherman property, the Master property, and the Clinton Agnew place.
