My GGGG-Grandfather, Alexander MORROW, (b. before 1740; d. about 1817) a native of Ireland, settled in what is now Hancock County, (W)Virginia in 1798. He purchased a 600 acre tract of land, located on Kings Creek in the south central part of what is now Hancock County. (Source: Alexander MORROW family history, citing "History of the Panhandle", pub. 1879.) His wife was Susan CASSIDY (d. about 1810) and they had 7 children. One of their daughters, Margaret MORROW,(1801-1879) my GGG-Grandmother, married Robert MOREHEAD, (b. about 1765; d. 1837). Robert was also a native of Ireland and then a resident of what is now Hancock County. Both the MORROW and the MOREHEAD families were residents of three different counties (Ohio, Brooke, and Hancock)without having moved.
I would appreciate hearing from anyone with connection to either of these lines. I can share information about some descendants of Alexander MORROW and Susan CASSIDY.
I have posted a similar query in the Brooke County Web Page, since I wasn't sure how this situation of different counties was handled.
