I took a drive through Morris Township in the area where Robert Milliken had land, between Sycamore and Ninevah, and also West Union and Graysville. There were several old farmhouses and even log cabins still in use. Could one of the log cabins be the one where Robert and Emaline lived when they were first married and where David was born? There were also several old churches, but there were no additional cemeteries that haven't already been cataloged that I could see. I was hoping to find one with a female Morris who died in 1820.
