Pioneer family reunion features marker dedication

The Morgans, a pioneer Jasper County family, will hold a reunion May 6 beginning at noon, at the Friendship Church south of Roganville.

At 10:30 a.m., a headstone dedication for Daniel and Mary Morgan will be held at the old Morg a n Cemetery located one-half mile east of U.S. Highway 96 and 250 yards north of FM 2245. The cemetery is a recent find that had been lost to the family for many years.

Arriving in Jasper County in the early to mid 1800's, the Morgan family settled in Magnolia Springs, Erin and Roganville.

Attendees should bring a covered dish, lawn chairs and old photos to share. Family genealogy and visitation will take place inside the historic Roganville Church.
