About this Website:

This Morgan Family website is dedicated to Thomas Morgan. It will focus on Thomas Morgan, his wives and children, and on William Morgan, son of Thomas Morgan and Ann Watkins. The goal is to present a definitive, well researched and documented life history of Thomas Morgan. And to fill it out with pictures and life sketches for all the children of Thomas Morgan and Ann Watkins, all the children of Thomas Morgan and Nancy Jane Radford, and all the children of William Morgan and Lovina Ross Morgan. Others who were closely associated with Thomas Morgan will be included, such as his wives with whom he did not have children, Frank Ryset who was Nancy Jane Radford's son by her first marriage and literally became part of Thomas's family, John Whitlock Radford whose children married into the Morgan family, and others who played a part in the life of Thomas Morgan and his families. It will gradually expand as pictures and life sketches of these families are located.
Each generation built upon the last. By the fourth generation, many were attending college and taking advantage of the growing opportunities in America. This is the legacy of strong, principled people—and it’s something we are proud to be a part of.
The story of Thomas Morgan and John Whitlock Radford is one of true pioneering spirit: difficult decisions, perilous sea voyages, grueling wagon train journeys, and heartbreaking personal losses. Their efforts laid the foundation for the life we enjoy today.
Thomas Morgan’s family was among the first of our pioneers in America. Let us honor their courage and the world they built for us.
This Morgan Family Pioneer Heritage website is a collaborative project made possible by many extended family members—researchers, writers, historians, and contributors of photos and stories—working together to preserve and share our rich family history.
