Hello. I am looking for information about John H. MORRIS and his wife Delia Hoagland Morris. They lived in what was Gallatin County and is now Carroll County, Kentucky in the early 1800's and according to a book ANCESTRY OF GRAFTON JOHNSON (1924), they moved to Lawrenceville, Illinois where he was a hatter. The book says that Morris had a correspondence with future president William Henry Harrison and it says that Morris was an ancestor of Delia Hiskey of Lawrenceville and Lincoln DuBois of Springfield. I'd like more information about Morris, his wife and their descendants, and also where they are buried. Perhaps the cemetery book is all you have at hand to check for me, but any information would be appreciated. I'm told that a Gen. John H. Morris, born February 3, 1780, In Hanarlier Co., Va., died December 20, 1851, is buried in Lawrenceville Cemetery. And that birth year is in the right range. I'm also told that there is a stone in the cemetery with no dates, but with the names Adelia Hiskey, Joseph Hiskey, Oaklly Hiskey, and Ida Hiskey. The John H. Morris I am interested in was the son of a famous Baptist minister Rev. Joshua Morris and his wife, Sarah Walton [Watkins], a neice of George Walton, a signer of the Declaration of Independence. Anyone have any information on John H. Morris, or any information about what John was a general of?
