Household 746: [older children of William from a previous marriage]
Morgan, James, 23
Henderson W, 21
Mary, 17

(Older married children living in separate households would include:
Allen, Hugh, Martha (Nighton), William M.)

HOUSEHOLD 747:
Morgan, William, 51
Delveny, 24
Emily, 16
John, 12
Rodney, 11
Hariett, 5 (eldest child of Delveny)
Alford, 2
Morgan, 3/12
==============================================================

- Alford and Morgan do not appear again in the census and apparently died as toddlers..
- Two more children follow: Sarah Catherine in 1856, Jesse in 1854. They are found in the 1860 Census living with relatives. In 1870 they are found living in Wayne Co, MO, with their older sister, Harriet, now the wife of James Lewis Gentry.

William has apparently died by 1860 as he doesn't appear in the census that year and the children are living with other families at that time.

They lived in Myatt township, which today is in Sharp County, north west of Walnut Ridge and south of Mammoth Spring, near the Missouri border.

In the 1850 census, William and Delveny (Pearce) Morgan lived with their children (from both marriages) near the Pearces (probably Delveny's family), the Brackens (Delveny's mother's family), and the Lasiters. Hariett married a Lasiter (or Laster) who was killed during the Civil War, before she met and married James Louis Gentry.

Further research is necessary to determine if Hariett's first husband was one of the neighboring Lasiter boys
(there were several her age and older - see below).

As seen from the list below, the Morgan, Bracken, Pearce, Ferguson and Lasiter families were very intermixed, living almost communally in what was probably one very large extended family of parents, children, grandchildren, cousins and in-laws. This pattern was apparently common in Arkansas during this era. See, for example the McMillans and Kuykendalls in Faulkner County.
