Rueben Morgan

Abt 1832 - Bef 1870  (~ 37 years)

• Name	Rueben Morgan
  Birth	Abt 1832	North Carolina
  Gender	Male
  Death	Bef 1870
  Notes	Rueben Morgan may have moved back to Florida after his 1857 marriage in Jasper, Texas. In an email dated April 2, 2006, Floyd Boyett passed along the following information: "I did find a Reuben Morgan, Co. G, 3rd. Florida Infantry (Pensacola area) as a Private on the Civil War Soldiers and Sailors System site. This should be Daniel's Reuben and the man we were looking for." Based on the census listing below, it appears that Rueben Morgan died sometime between 1865 and 1870, perhaps as a result of the Civil War? It further appears that Susan remarried. Her second spouse appears to have died as well: 1870 U.S. Federal Census, Texas, Jasper, Subdivision 23 409-410 Wilson, Susan 43 F W Keeping House 100 100 Louisiana Morgan, Eliza G 12 F W Texas Morgan, Jessie 10 M W Texas Morgan, Alice 9 F W Texas Morgan, Josephine 5 F W Texas At the time of the 1880 census, 14 year old Josephine is living in the home of John McLemore, her uncle by marriage, and listed as Josephine Wilson. Only Jesse and Allie are listed in the Estate settlement of Daniel Morgan as "surviving grandchildren." It therefore appears that Eliza and Josephine may have died prior to the settlement of Daniel's estate in 1886.
