sheriff of Trimble County, but by occupation a farmer.  His mother was

Our subject is the eldest of five children, the others being Lucian B.,
Orval T., Hattie B. and Albert S.  He was reared to farming pursuits, which
he followed until 1883, when he sold his farm, and engaged in the
mercantile business at Bedford, and was thus engaged until 1884, when he
closed out, and has again turned his attention to agriculture.  In 1886 he
was appointed master commissioner of Trimble County, and is the present
incumbent of that office.  In January, 1887, he was appointed deputy county
and circuit court clerk under Messrs. Logan and Lee.  In 1879 he was a

1880, he married Miss Henrietta Obrien, daughter of John R. and Martha J.
Obrien, of Trimble County.  To this union were born two daughters and one
son: Orval L., Mattie. and Mary B., all of whom are living.  Mr. and Mrs.
Morgan are members of the Methodist Episcopal Church.  He is a member of
