1Title:  David Morrow, Sr. Family Papers     
 Creator:  Morrow, David Sr. Family 
 Dates:  1818-1938 
 Abstract:  David Morrow Sr. was the son of John Morrow and brother of John Morrow Jr. and William Morrow. The family originated in Knock, parish of Castlenagh, County Down, Ireland. William Morrow emigrated to Virginia, and with family friend Alexander J. Stewart, who had settled in New York City, corresponded with the remaining Morrow family members in Ireland. The David Morrow Sr. family, including David Sr., his wife Abigail, and their children, David Jr., William, and Abigail, emigrated from Belfast, Ireland in 1832, and were settled in Euclid, Ohio, by 1833, where they farmed. David Morrow Jr. and his brother William, continued to farm after the death of their father in 1836, eventually acquiring their own land in Glenville, near Cleveland, Ohio. David Morrow Jr. married Eliza Shade, and they had three children; David Wilson, Abigail, and Eliza Lillie. David Wilson Morrow attended Shaw Academy in East Cleveland, and graduated from the Case School of Applied Science in 1890. He went into practice in Cleveland as a civil and architectural engineer, establishing the firm of Morrow and Cross. He was an active member of the Cleveland Engineering Society, the Cleveland Chamber of Commerce, and the Cleveland Automobile Club. He married Ruby Jessamine Adams in 1905, and they had four children, two of whom survived, Ruth and David. The collection consists of genealogical and biographical sketches, correspondence, appointment books, tax returns and other financial papers, probate record journals, wills, deeds, trust and estate agreements, land plats and other real estate papers, minutes, transcripts, and other legal documents.
