History of Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania; Edited by Adolf W. Schalck and Hon. D. C. Henning ; State Historical Association 1907, Volume II, Page 19:

"Albright, Morgan S., steward of the Schuylkill county alms-house, is a son of Joseph and Esther (Sheridan) Albright, and was born in West Brunswick township, on Dec. 27, 1842. He attended the public schools of his home town and at the age of fifteen years began working on his father's farm. At the age of twenty-two he purchased a farm of his own, which he conducted for ten years. In 1874 he went into the butcher's business, in which line he continued for twenty-five years, and followed that for three years by dealing in cattle and horses. In 1902 he was elected steward of the alms-house, which position he is at present occupying.

On Aug. 29, 1864, Mr. Albright married Susannah E. Diebert, daughter of Joseph and Elizabeth (Drumheller) Diebert, of North Manheim township. From this union eight children were born, and of them record is here made: Alvin A., of Pottstown, Pa.; William M., living in Louisiana; Hettie R., married to Allen Smith, of Orwigsburg; Nora C., married to Burd Linder, postmaster at Orwigsburg; Annie, deceased; Margaret, living at home; and two daughters who died before reaching maturity.

Mr. Albright is a member of the Free Masons and his family are members of the Reformed church of Orwigsburg."
