" From The Descendents of John Morgan by heleninmichigan: Pleasant Benjamin Morgan (LENOAH , BENJAMIN (PERRY) , JOHN ) was born March 25, 1847 in Hawkins County, Tennessee, and died June 26, 1923 in Eidson, Hawkins County, TN. He married Margaret (Maggie) Jane Conant September 29, 1870 in Rogersville, Hawkins County, TN, daughter of James Conant and Sarah ?. She was born June 24, 1851 in Sullivan County, Tennessee, and died February 05, 1935. CENSUS: He was listed in the census of Senoah Morgan Sr. and Martha E. Amos on 1 Nov. 1850 in District 7, Hawkins, TN. age 4 in 1850 1860 census lists him at age 13 with family, born in TN Not in 1880 Census of Hawkins TN (Box 1260/1261). He and Margaret Jane Conant appeared in the census of 2 Jun 1900 in District 3, Hawkins County, TN. (Box 1577; ED 78.

Living in Hawkins TN (district 3) in 1900 with 5 children, and in 1910 with Martha and Gideon H. in 1910; married 40 years, farmer. The LDS web page has an International Genealogical Index abstract showing that Margaret J. Conant married Pleasant B. Morgant on Sept. 29, 1870. I have confirmed this marriage in Hawkins County Vital records but the groom's surname is "Morgan" and the date is Sept. 26, 1870. I believe that I have found this family in the 1880, 1900, 1910 and 1920 US Censuses for Hawkins County TN. I am a little unsure about the 1910 data where his wife is listed as "Marcha J. and appears to be 10 years too young. Pleasant is born in TN but his parents were born in NC. In 1880 Pleasant is a farm laborer. 1913 Pleasant is living in Eidson, Hawkins County, TN. SERVICE.-Garrison duty at Camp Nelson and Camp Burnside, Ky., till June, 1864. Re-enlisted February, 1864.
