***FAG volunteer T. Schmig requested linking Alfred to his children, however, there is NO WAY to communicate w/requestor ... to let that person know that a child can be linked to the parent, but only from the child's FAG memorial. As I have no way to make changes, individual links to the parents must be done from the various children's memorials. Request was as follows:

Suggested edit: Please link his 7 children Find A Grave Memorial's to both Alfred Caswell Morrison and spouse/mother Elizabeth Horn Morrison:
Hewey Ellis Morrison 58476224
Sarah M. Morrison Stewart 132191282
William Lewis Morrison 115575250
John W. Morrison 113684388
George Washington Morrison (Has no current Find A Grave that has been located. Per California Death Index 1905-1939 : Name: George W Morrson, Birth Year abt 1852, Death Date 28 Oct 1935, Age at Death 83, Death Place: Sacramento, California, USA)
Rachel E. Morrison b: 1857 in Greene County, Missouri d: after 1870 -( no further information or Find A Grave located)
Abigal Hasseltine "Hassie" Morrison Martin 35917369

If I could locate their graves I would make a memorial for each of the other 2 children, but at least we could link 5 for now. Thanks, T. Schmig (adopted born Loretta Morrison. You are welcome to contact me via email), but "not accepting messages" and no email link makes it difficult to answer a query/request.
