Notes for EDMON WHEELER MORRISON:
Notes on this family (Edmon Wheeler MORRISON) and name Thomas MORRISON given by Jack & Betty (Morrison) Moore, letter, 1/1/97.

Jack Moore speculates (from Bewtty's 92-year old Uncle Bill Morrison) that possibly Edmon was NOT a child of Joseph and Elizabeth Gibson MORRISON, but was "adopted" as an illegitimate child of Sarah Ann Morrison. (OR a sister of Elizabeth Gibson (?) which would be either Caroline, Theda, Harriet, or Maria Morrison.) Could "Wheeler" have been his father's name?
