Daughters Mamie, Clara, Margaret. Son Samuel died young: “In the spring of 1891, young Samuel Morrow, about 13 or so, went hunting with a neighbor boy. They killed some squirrels and ate them. Both boys died. Later it was determined the squirrels had eaten some poisoned corn. We assume young Samuel was buried next to his father, near Buena Vista, MS.”
