Description	:	Hugh Morrison was the last child of William and Sarah (nee Hamilton) Morrison, born at Tullamore, a village in eastern Peel County, Ontario. A year later his father died, leaving his mother to take care of six living children.

Read More	Hugh Morrison was the last child of William and Sarah (nee Hamilton) Morrison, born at Tullamore, a village in eastern Peel County, Ontario. A year later his father died, leaving his mother to take care of six living children. This likely proved to be too much for her to handle, because the family was somewhat scattered after William's death. On the 1851 (Jan. 1852) census Hugh is found in his father's probable first cousin James Morrison's household, listed as an adopted son. He was likely a welcome addition to the household because James and Jane never had any children of their own. He grew up there in the countryside near Tullamore, eventually marrying Anne Webb in 1872 in nearby Toronto. Hugh and Anne Morrison then farmed for a living and had seven children together, just like Hugh's own father. They were James, Rachel, Louisa, Loretta, Alfred, Earnest and Percy. Those last two boys were born after the family's apx. 1878 move from Tullamore, Peel County to Georgetown, Halton County, Ontario. Hugh lived to a very old age, outliving his wife and unfortunately three of his sons. Hugh's adoptive father James can be found on his 1881 census as his widowed father. It is unclear if Hugh had started a separate household or if James stayed in the same home for all those intervening years. In any case, James passed at Georgetown in 1888, yet his grave site is unknown. Hugh's birth mother lived more than 100 years, passing away in 1912 with the married name of Sarah Munns. Her grave site is also unknown. Hugh's own obituary can be found in the Georgetown Herald (Georgetown, ON), 22 Feb 1933, p 2 [see their website].
