Rev. Morgan Morgans (Jan. 18, 1851 --- Died: Sep. 15, 1930): Born in Jennings Co., Indiana, Rev. Morgans became a renowned evangelist throughout Missouri, Indian Territory, and Texas. He was said to have preached in all 48 states and the Holy Land. "Morg" married Emma Pine Adams on July 3, 1870, in Neosho, Newton County, Mo. They had five children together. He died in Burnet, Texas, and his passing was the main headline on page one of the Sept. 18, 1930 Burnet Bulletin: "Burnet’s Most Useful Citizen Called By Death." He was a remarkable man, and a true "Minister of the Gospel of Christ," which is inscribed on his tombstone. He was my great grand uncle..
I am a descendant of Miles Morgan and Morgan Morgan - we are still trying to confirm which line. However, this Rev Morgan Morgan and my son are almost the spitting image of one another, especially with the way he has his beard and hair at the moment. If the poster of this sees this, please let me know which Morgan line you belong to - that would be awesome, at the very least we are probably distant cousins.

I'm a Founder of AncientFaces and support the community answering questions & helping members make connections to the past (thus my official title of Founder & Content and Community Support ). For me, it's been a labor of love for over 20 years. I truly believe with all of my heart that everyone should be remembered for generations to come.
I am 2nd generation San Jose and have seen a lot of changes in the area while growing up. We used to be known as the "Valley of Heart's Delight" (because the Valley was covered with orchards and there were many canneries to process the food grown here, which shipped all over the US) - now we have adopted the nickname "Capital of Silicon Valley" and Apple, Ebay, Adobe, Netflix, Facebook, and many more tech companies are within a few miles of my current home in San Jose (including AncientFaces). From a small town of 25,000, we have grown to 1 million plus. And when you add in all of the communities surrounding us (for instance, Saratoga, where I attended high school, living a block from our previous Mayor), we are truly one of the big cities in the US. I am so very proud of my hometown. For more information see Kathy - Founder & Content and Community Director My family began AncientFaces because we believe that unique photos and stories that show who people are/were should be shared with the world.
I want to build a place where my son can meet his great-grandparents. My grandmother Marian Joyce (Benning) Kroetch always wanted to meet her great-grandchildren, but she died just a handful of years before my son's birth.
So while she didn't have the opportunity to meet him, at least he will be able to know her.
For more information about what we're building see About AncientFaces. For information on the folks who build and support the community see Daniel - Founder & Creator. My father's side is full blood Sicilian and my mother's side is a combination of Welsh, Scottish, German and a few other European cultures. One of my more colorful (ahem black sheep) family members came over on the Mayflower. He was among the first to be hanged in the New World for a criminal offense he made while onboard the ship.
