General Notes: Husband - William Morrison

---

He was of Irish ancestry. About 1842 he and his wife located in Pymatuning Township, Mercer County, Pennsylvania, on a tract of land extending across the line of Delaware Township, whence they removed to Brookfield, Ohio, where the wife died. Her hus­band then returned to Mercer County, and later died on a part of the old home­stead.

Although he spent most of his life as a farmer, for a number of years he was engaged in mercantile pursuits in Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania. While still a young man he also embarked in two hotel ventures, one in Mercer, Pennsylvania, and the other at Brookfield, Ohio. Both of these enterprises were successful although conducted on a strictly temperance basis. The last years of his life were spent as a farmer in Mercer County, Pennsylvania. He was an active member of the Presbyterian church and in politics a Whig and Republican.
