It would pay to check, there was a lot of movement between St Joseph Co. IN and Berrien
Co., MI. I had several ancestors there that were active on both sides of the state line.
Also check New Carlisle.

Thanks for the help. I have checked Berrien County Michigan with no luck. Here
is an excerpt from Eliza's obituary that led me to Terre Coupee:
-------------------------------
Eliza Ann Morgan
May 30, 1825-April 17, 1876
Niles Democrat, Saturday, April 29 1876, page 3, col. 3, microfilm Niles
District Library
DIED
In this city, Monday, April 17, 1876, Mrs. ELIZA A. MORGAN, relict of Henry
Morgan, in her 51st year.
She was born at Liberty, Union county, Indiana, May 30, 1825. Her parents, (Mr.
and Mrs. David Deniston) with their family moved to the territory of Michigan in
1836, and settled on Terre Coupee prairie, near where Dayton Village is now
situated. In 1851, they moved to Niles--father, mother, two sons and two
daughters. Miss Eliza A. Deniston becoming the wife of Henry Morgan, March 19,
1851, and with the exception of about one year's residence in Dowagiac, Cass
county, has since lived in Niles. She was converted and united with the
Methodist Episcopal Church at Hamilton, Ind., when 15 years of age, and from
that time to the day of her death (over thirty-five years) born evidence
consistently of her strong faith in God...
--------------------------------------------------
Since I could not find the marriage in Niles, my next guess was that they were
married in the bride's church in nearby St. Joseph County. There is a similarly
named church in Hamilton, IN, but that is in the northeastern corner of the
state so does not seem to be as good a choice. Thanks again for the help.
