hi there,
I'm new to this site, so i don't know that much info about it, but the reason I'm here is my grandfather is john Henry Morgan and i believe i could be a very distant relative. If not its all interesting anyway.  I was looking thru my 85 year old grandfathers old photos and cleaning up the house ready to sell and came across a family tree.
some of the information matches up with the Frederick Henry you are talking about and I believe his sister Elizabeth is my great great grandmother.
In the list of the family i have; (this is line for line as written on the paper)
Thomas HENRY m Elizabeth Jones begot
Frederick HENRY born London 1809 m Cecilia McGowan b Ireland 1826
James m Mary White
Edward m Sarah Asbery, Sarah Hansaker, Mary Noyes, nee Asbery
Fredrick bachelor, 1856-1926
John died young, twin of Frederick
Mary Jane m 1852-78 m John ALBERTSON
Elizabeth married John MORGAN
Thomas m Elizabeth Davidson
William m Janet White
Cecilia Jane m James HYDE 1st, James BLAKE 2nd (moree peop.)

My great great grandmother is Elizabeth m John Morgan they had 14 kids and my great grand father was Martin Morgan who was a police officer. He married Florence Feild and had one child John Henry Morgan. J.H.Morgan married Thelma Jean Jones
They had 4 kids my mother the Youngest Catherine has 2 children me and my younger sister.

Anyway I have more dates and information about all the extended family. I'm sure there is someone with some information in the family, unfortunately my grandfather is not the best person to talk to about this as he is starting to suffer dementure and has always been difficult to talk to.  I do know that his origins are from Ireland, the Meath and possibly the Cork area. I only found this out from a text message from my mother while i was in Ireland last year.

I don't know if this is relevent or if I'm even on the right track but some of the names mentioned in your post were matching the information i have.. also i have loads of old photographs of family members which may match up or resemble if you have similar.. I just thought it was all interesting and thought id say hi.. let me know if it matches up.

any questions feel free to ask.. and if you really want to talk to my grandpa on this he love to talk about himself and his family on and on... so much no one in our family listens.. sad.. but old age will get the best of him soon so maybe now is the time to start digging on the family history...
