In Memoriam - September 25th

1858 John Morgan son of Charles & Susanna (Doggett) Morgan age 79 in Muhlenberg Co., KY.  John Morgan, who represented the county in the State Legislature in 1806, was one of the early settlers in the Pond River country.  None of the pioneers took more interest in saddle-horses or owned better ones than he.  Every winter, for more than fifty years, he wore a cap made from the fur of white foxes he occasionally caught in the hills near his home.  John born in Culpeper Co.,  VA married Jane Irvin and they had eight children: Charles, John, Daniel, James, Susan, Margaret, Jane and William. 



2006 Vernon Mick, age 80 died in Chesterfield, MO.  He was the son of Gustav & Florence (Brewe) Mick born in Madison Co., IL in 1926.  Vernon married Dorothy LeBegue and they had one son, Jeff.  Vernon is buried in Sunnyside Cemetery in Sorento, IL.
