Birth: 	Dec. 1, 1794
Maryland, USA
Death: 	Oct. 27, 1881

Decatur Daily Republican 10/28/1881

In our issue of yesterday allusion was made to the death of one of Decaturs and Macon counties old time settlers,Thomas II,Morris.
Mr.Morris was born in Maryland,December 1,1795 and departed this life after a long and varied pilgrimage, at his residence on E. William street, this city, Oct.27, 1881, consequently he was nearly 86 years of age. He removed from the state of Maryland when a small boy and became a resident of Pickaway county, Ohio whence have come so many of our older citizens. Either is the last state or in Indiana he enlisted while yet a mere lad in the war of 1812 as a member of infantry under Capt. McNamara. He was fortunate enough to escape unscathed from the dangers of his soldier experience and removed to Macon county, Illinois in the years 1838 and settled where Capt. Boards?an, one of Macon counties pioneers, now resides, in Wheatland township, about three miles southeast of Decatur.
On March 24, 1814 Mr. Morris was married in Ohio or Indian to Nancy Wolverton. After her death he was on the 3rd day of September, 1833, married to Nancy Lynch. His third wife was Susan Greenfield to whom he was united in marriage December 10, 1854. His fourth wife whom he formed a matrimonial alliance on the 27th of September, 1863 and who now survives him was Nancy Fletcher. Mr. Morris leaves seven surviving children, five boys, and two girls, all adults to mourn his departure, the oldest of whom is Mark Morris now residing in Oregon, the next oldest is Sarah Agen, now a resident of this city, the third member of the family is Lewis Morris,now living in Mt. Zion township, this county,Cornelius Morris residing in Wheatland, township is his fourth child,John Morris now living in Decatur is his fifth child. Jane Kendall wife of Mr. Oliver Kendall of Mt. Zion township is is sixth child and the youngest member of the family is Douglas Morris, residing in Decatur. He leaves 41 grandchildren and forty five great grandchildren.
The burial will take place at the Walnut Grove school house cemetery, four miles south of Decatur, the funeral services to be held at the above named schoolhouse on Saturday, the 20th at one oclock.
Mr. Morris has been a man of great means, having given to each of his five sons upon reaching their majority, 80 acres of good farming land and to each of his two daughters considerable money and real estate. He was a peculiar man in many respects, possessing a markably strong constitution, inured to all the hardships of pioneer life, was energetic,acquisitive,persistent in what he believed to be right, a man of iron will and determination that was almost phenomenal. He possessed in short those qualities in an eminent degree characterizing the brave and hardy pioneers of our own country and state.
The members of the family will have the earnest sympathy of our citizens.
