Note:
We know that our forefather, Morgan Morgan, was accompanied to La. from Ky by his brother, John therefore, we have every reason to believe that the John Morgan, Jr., who was appointed executer of the last will and testament of Martha Boone, was the brother of Morgan Morgan.
The John Morgan who witnessed the will was evidently the father of John an Morgan Morgan. Examine the chart and you will see where Sarah Morgan married Squire Boone in 1720. They were the grandparents of our Jane Boone Morgan (wife of Morgan Morgan who came to La.) Sarah Morgan Boone had a brother John who married Sarah Lloyd. If our Morgan Morgan and his brother John were descendants of John Morgan, brother to Sarah Morgan Boone, then Jane Boone Morgan was related to her husband, Morgan Morgan.
