    • Henry Louis Morgan was born on December 3, 1881, the fourth child and third son of a family of six boys and one girl. His father was Malachi L. Morgan (b. March 24, 1852-d. June 11, 1906), who was born, lived, died, and is buried in East Texas. His mother was Mary West Morgan (b. December 27, 1854-d. July 22, 1905), who, like her husband, was born and lived out her life in East Texas.

      After enjoying some twenty years of retirement, Henry Louis Morgan died in 1966, at age 84, and is buried in Forest Lawn Cemetery in Beaumont. Maggie Morgan passed away on May 9, 1984, at age 93, and is buried beside her husband. They are still fondly recalled and sorely missed by their five children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, and a host of friends whose lives they touched.

    • Henry and Maggie Morgan lived during the early years of their married life in a number of sawmill towns in Jasper County, including Magnolia Springs and Call, Texas, where one of the huge Kirby Lumber Company mills (formerly Cow Creek Lumber Company) was located. While their three oldest daughters were still quite young, the family moved in 1923 to their new home in Nederland, Texas, at what was then 225 Port Arthur Avenue. The former H. L. Morgan home still stands at 720 Fifteenth Street.
