The reformatting of the name font and census data for this page has been completed. --John M. Gwin, Mar 2013
SOURCES:
1.  The following information was copied by John Gwin from the book West Virginians in the Revolution (bibliographical information unk.), p. 205ff, and someone's typed copy of, as submitted by cousin Sherry Levoy to the MyFamily website located at http://www.MyFamily.com/isapi.dll?c=Content&att=nU3lirzcdXRrHQCUCuiTPK%2ACvPg9K2%2ACZhDFAI&htx=View&siteid=gnuHAE&contentid=ZZZZZZVG&contentclass=PICT&_ref=ContentNotify

2.  Since then, I've added corroborating and expanding data from other sources such as census documents (accessed through Ancestry.com) and Findagrave.com.

3.  Now, 8 Jan 2024, I'm finally trying to tie my line to that of cousin Connie Hargroder who sent me her data quite a while back.

According to research that was done by my grandaunt Katherine Butler many years ago, this is the way it goes!

[John M. Gwin Note--8 Jan 2024:  I received the following outline several years ago from a cousin, Connie Hargroder.  As I recall, she and I are related through two common ancestors, William Morris and Elizabeth Stapp.  Tonight I have taken the opportunity to put Connie's data into my outline format and assign generation numbers to the ancestors she sent me.  Assuming that she and I are about the same age, I assigned her to generation number 28 (which is my number as well) and worked backward to William and Elizabeth, who ended up being in generation 21.  This generation number 21 coincides with the one in my own outline above, so I believe it to be correct.  Now I feel more comfortable beginning my own research to see if I can connect my line to hers.  Using her note, above, I believe the grandaunt to whom Connie refers to be 26.07--Katherine Mildred Butler.]

Most of us have been communicating for over a year now but don't really know where we all are, how we are related to people on the tree. We might know which tree we come from but not the relationships. I put relationships to the key person on the cousins site and that would be helpful if you guys could fill me in.

  ID: I05473
  Name: William MORRIS 1
  Sex: M
  Birth: 1722 in Liverpool, England 1
  Death: 1792 in Kanawha Co., WV 1
  Reference Number: 5473
  Note:

       The Morris family came to Kanawha in 1774, and are now found in every portion of the Valley. They have married and intermarried, until the original Morris blood runs in the veins of thousands of persons who reside in this portion of West Virginia. William Morris, Sr. was the first permanent settler of the Kanawha Valley. Walter Kelly was the first to locate the Kanawha River, but he was murdered by the Indians a few months after his arrival in the valley. Mr. Morris came here soon after Mr, Kell's death and purchased the Kelley's creek tract of land from the widow of Mr. Kelly. There were nine brothers of the original Morris family; viz: William, or Billy as he was always called, Henry, Joshua, Leonard, Levi, Edmund, John, Kellis, and Benjamin. There were but two sisters, viz: Betty and Frankie. William, as stated, located at the mouth of Kelly's creek, where Mrs. R E Tompkins now resides. John settled on the Kanawha, opposite the mouth of Campbell's creek, five miles above Charleston. Edmund and Joshua secured beautiful homesteads in Teay's Valley, and the other brothers settled at different points along the Kanawha river. There were four "Billy Morrises," and in referring to them it was often difficult to distinguish them from each other. "Old Billy" had a son called "Major Billy." Carroll, a son of "Major Billy," had a son whom he called "Little Billy," who was a noted salt-well borer; and Edmund had a son who went by the name of "Falls Billy," because he resided at the Falls of Kanawha." "History of Kanawha county, West Virginia from its organization in 1789 until present time" by George W Atkinson-written in 1876.
