. See also Edward Danforth Morrill was born in Illinois, but his family moved back to New England shortly thereafter. He was a carpenter in Lowell, Mass., married for one year, when he enlisted in 1862. After the war, he and his wife moved near Camden, Alabama, bought 4,000 acres on the Alabama River and planted cotton. His wife Mary died a few years later in 1869. A decade later he remarried and had a son Samuel. By 1876, he and his family removed to Washington, D. C. where they remained.
