According to the 1900 census Rowan County, Bradshaw District there was
an Abram Morgan born Oct 1853 married 14 years to Angie born Nov 1867.
They had a son Julius N. born Feb 1888, and daughters Myrtie born May
1890, Jane E. born Jan 1894 and Blanche born Apr 1896. Abram was a
farmer. The whole family was born in NC and so were their parents.
The above information came from census and birth records.
However there is a family tree site that indicates that an Abram
Morgan is the son of Henry Morgan and Sally Polly Hill. This Henry
Morgan had many children and one of those sons (Abram's brother) was
named Julius. I think it was common practice for men to name their
sons after their brothers so this could be a good trail for you to
follow. The family tree site I was looking at took the Morgan family
back to a Hugh Morgan in Wales.
Have you written to the North Carolina Bureau of Vital Statistics for
birth certificates?
Good luck with your search and I hoped this helped. |
