This list has posted so many times over the past 5 years the actual genealogy
of Rev. MORGAN MORGAN born 1652/1653 Glamorgan County, England and his wife
and mother of many of his children CATHERINE GARRETSON born 1665 Glamorgan
County, England, and her name became colonized as Garrison, after emigration
in 1714 into lands of Delware. Later Rev. MORGAN MORGAN was granted 1000
acres of Virginia at the modern day site of BUNKER HILL, in Berkley County,
Virginia.

Hope this helps some of you veterans of genealogy on the Internet as well as
those just starting to identify your MORGAN ancestors. Can any one show
another marriage for this man? Or is it just another person with a similar
name in an error prone publication that was being quoted?

Those of you are new to Genealogy should note that the below post is very
much not accurate as to the wife or the children alledged to be born. These
are the type of posts that pass on LEGEND but not accurate genealogy.

The REV. MORGAN MORGAN of BUNKER HILL fame was a man born in ENGLAND and came
with a wife and some children to the New World Colonies.
