General Notes: Husband - Abijah Morrison

---

He was born in Mead township, Warren County, Pennsylvania, as now constituted, on what was later known as the Rogers farm. While he was a young man, his father purchased what were thereafter known as Morrison Flats, just below Warren, and erected thereon a large dwelling house, which for years was one of the oldest landmarks in the county. Abijah Morrison was elected sheriff of Warren County in 1840 and again in 1846. He was also an extensive lumberman and merchant in the county, and the community sustained a severe loss in his death. He was a zealous Democrat in politics, and was many years a constable in Warren borough. [HWC 1887, 652]
