The John Lacy Morris, Sr., and Daisy (Callahan) Morris Family |
Name: The John Lacy Morris, Sr., and Daisy (Callahan) Morris Family Date: ca. 1918 Image Number: JM10acdJM01 Comments: Pictured above are the children of John Lacy Morris, Sr. (1881-1940) and Daisy Holmes (Callahan) Morris (1881-1967). This family lived at Morrisena, the home of the Morris family built on property along the branches of Totier Creek near Warren in Albemarle County, Virginia. In 1918, this family was sharing their Morrisena home with John Lacy Morris's parents, John Taylor Morris (1846-1920) and Lela B. (Lacy) Morris (1854-1919). Following are the identities of the four children of John Lacy Morris, Sr., and Daisy (Callahan) Morris (L to R): (1) Frances Mandley Morris, b. 15 September 1915, Albemarle County, Virginia; d. 08 November 1975, Richmond, VA. Shown below is a 1910 photo of John Lacy Morris, Sr., father of the above four children. Also below at right is a photo, dated ca. 1960, of Daisy Holmes (Callahan) Morris (second from right), who is standing between her daughter, Frances Mandley Morris at left, and son, John Lacy Morris, Jr, at her right. The lady at the left of the ca. 1960 photo was identified on the photo as Susie Callahan, a presumed relative of Daisy (Callahan) Morris. These photos are part of the John Lacy Morris, Jr., collection at Scottsville Museum. In 2005, John resided at Morrisena near Warren, Virginia, and he was the grandson of John Taylor Morris and Lelia B. (Lacy) Morris. John was the last member of the Morris family to reside at Morrisena since it was first granted in 1747 to his ancestor, Hugh Morris, by King George II. John Lacy Morris, Jr., passed away on 25 September 2005 in Charlottesville, Virginia, and he left the Morrisena property to the adult children of his two brothers, James Taylor Morris and George William Morris.
