\"Morgan<\/a>It isn\u2019t clear whether anyone descending from the Morgan family that settled present day Morgan, NJ still has the last name of \u201cMorgan\u201d.\u00a0 As far as I know, no family members still live in Morgan and none of those who live near Morgan, NJ appear to have that surname anymore.\u00a0 I find that to be both ironic and kind of sad.<\/p>\n

The purpose of this write-up\u00a0is to give an initial list of one son from each generation who had the last name of \u201cMorgan\u201d.\u00a0 It starts with the first Morgan who came, reportedly in 1641, from Wales to Gravesend, New Amsterdam in \u201cThe New World\u201d (present day Brooklyn, NY) and concludes with the last person named \u201cMorgan\u201d who was in the Morgan, NJ area that I am thus far aware of.<\/p>\n

This list, which by no means the full Morgan family tree, will help when reading other pages or postings on this Morgan-NJ.org web site.\u00a0 Discussions can get a little confusing because in the nine generations presented in this posting, there are four people named \u201cCharles\u201d, three named \u201cJames\u201d and two named \u201cRobert\u201d. This list was chosen since most of what I know so far involves the individuals shown in the list. Please note that the son listed won\u2019t always be the first born son and it doesn\u2019t show wives or all children.\u00a0 This list is the best attempt given what we thus far have discovered and has been compiled from a variety of sources.\u00a0 In other words there are undoubtedly some inaccuracies.\u00a0 Fortunately because this is the internet, if\/when I come across more accurate information, I will come back to this posting and make the correction(s).<\/p>\n

Here we go!<\/p>\n
