Subject: Tyree Morris of Granville County North Carolina circa 1790

Hi, I am looking for information regarding the parents and siblings
of Tyree Morris of Granville County North Carolina. He married
Elizabeth "Betty" "Betsey" Hester, she was born around 1780. They
were married in Granville County North Carolina on Dec. 12, 1800,
Elizabeth was the daughter of Francis "Frank" Hester and Mildred
Frazier of Granville County North Carolina.

Tyree Morris and Elizabeth Hester had the following children.

Asa Morris
Coley Morris
Matilda Morris
Jincy Morris

My 5th Great Grandmother was named Coley Morris. She married Wilmot
Egerton Harris in Warren County North Carolina on Jan. 1, 1799
Wilmot E. Harris, lived in the part of Warren County that was
formally Bute County, the part of Bute County that was originally
Granville County.It is obvious that Tyree Morris and Elizabeth Hester
are not old enough to be the parents of my 5th great grandmother but
Coley is not that common of a name especially in a female so I am
thinking that Tyree Morris may be a brother of my 5th great
Grandmother and I don't know nothing about her. I dont know when she
was born or who her parents are just that she died between 1820 and
1830 in Greene County Georgia.

I tried sending this to message boards before but it didn't go
through for some reason. Maybe it will this time.

Any help will be appreciated.
