The source record for William Morgan Nightser gives his birth location as Mount Vernon, Knox County, Ohio. But he is found with his parents when two years old in the 1850 census in South Bloomfield, Morrow County, Ohio. It is possible the family moved after his birth or the birth location could be questionable. More research is needed here.
