      PLEASANT TOWNSHIP
      DR. JOSEPH MORRIS – The subject of this sketch was born in Monroe township, this county, December 10, 1838. His parents, Henry and Margaret Morris, settled here in 1832. Dr. Morris has been twice married; his first wife, daughter of James and Mary Smith, was born in this county April 6, 1839; the second and present wife, Diana, daughter of Daniel and Catherine Seitz, was born in Fairfield county Mary 8, 1837. Children: Galenus, born July 23, 1861; Alfred, October 1, 1862; Josephine, July 11, 1864, deceased; Sarah Lucinda, born September 21, 1866, died August 5, 1877; Frank, born May 25, 1868; Rosella, January 17, 1870; Robert D., May 28, 1877; Lizzie, July 20, 1879. Dr. Morris’s father and mother were the first settlers in Monroe township (this township has since been struck off to Allen county). They settled on the farm where mother Morris now lives, and here she lived six weeks without seeing the face of a woman. Soon afterward other families came in, William and Rebecca Turner being the first family to settle in Pleasant township. Dr. Morris has practised medicine and surgery in Columbus Grove since 1870.
