THE MORRIS JOURNAL, ISSUE #1. By Andrew J. Morris. 58 pages, indexed. Originally published Dec. 1985, Fort Collins CO.

The Morris Journal was a quarterly publication devoted to information on Morris families from around the world. It began publication in December 1985, and ceased in September 1988. Each of the 12 issues published have been placed on microfiche. Some of the information found in this issue includes Morris listings from the 1879/80 and the 1879/82 city directories for Los Angeles; descendants of Edward Morris who emigrated from Essex, England to Roxbury, Massachusetts in the mid 1600's; baptisms and marriages from Bekan Parish, County Mayo, Ireland 1832 to 1860; Hardin County Tennessee tombstone inscriptions; biographical sketches; family group sheets, and more. Most valuable is a complete index, which lists not only the full name for persons mentioned, but includes an event, date and locality for each, so that one may quickly determine which listings may be of interest. So, for example, there are 58 listings for "John Morris" -- a typical entry reads "John Morris, b. in 1826 Ootacamund, India," then gives the page number for that person. This publication is a useful research tool for anyone with Morris family relations.
