Early Morgan family papers, 1775-[ca. 1980] (bulk 1775-1857).

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/270992091

Diaries, financial and legal records, genealogies, and additional research material related to ancestors of Pierpont Morgan. Diaries (1792-1843, [ca. 1980]) document primarily the family of history of Lucas Morgan (1743-1818) and his children; they also include the journals of Joseph Morgan (1780-1847), son of Joseph and Experience and grandfather of John Pierpont Morgan. Financial and legal records (1775-1857) are comprised chiefly of account books for the estate expenses of Lucas Morgan and his family, and record their income and expenditures from 1786-1857; there are also five volumes of legal documents kept by Lucas Morgan who served as a justice of the peace for West Springfield. Genealogies (1809, 1852, [ca. 1914]) include two autograph manuscript copies of Titus Morgan's book, A Record of the Family of Miles Morgan Who Emigrated From England and Settled in Springfield A.D. 1636, as well a manuscript copy in the hand of John Pierpont Morgan and four typescript copies. All of the later copies contain additions to the original text.
