Jan 8, 2000
Name: Gary Morrison
Surnames: MORRISON, FORSYTHE, ELDER

Joseph MORRISON was born circa 1815 in Ireland. In 1850 he was in Elizabeth township, Allegheny county, Pennsylvania. He married a Eliza in Pennsylvania circa 1851. (I believe this Eliza to be Elizabeth FORSYTH, but need proof.) Joseph, Eliza and son John Thomas MORRISON moved to Wapello county, Iowa circa 1855.

John Thomas married Nancy Rebeca FORSYTHE (different Forsyth family) in 1871 in Davis county, Iowa. They had nine children, one being John Clayton MORRISON, my grandfather. John Clayton married Florence Belle ELDER in Davis County, Iowa.

John Thomas and Nancy's first born was named Joseph Artensus Morrison (nicknamed Tenny). Was he named after his grandfather? Has anyone run across the name Artensus? Would like to share information with anyone researching this line.
