I am inclined to believe that William Anthony Morgan is not the son of Robert and Hannah Morgan. I see no evidence that they left Massachusetts. Their other children were born and lived in MA. I am a Morgan with ancestors both Morgan and Thayer ancestors in Massachusetts. I would sooner believe he connects with one of the Anthony Morgan lines in Virginia.

That struck me as incorrect, too.

I'm also curious as to what documentation there is for William's middle name "Anthony." Do you know?
