Seeking any descendants or information on a Frank Morris (could be spelled Morise) who got married in Pittsburgh in August of 1890. He was African American and was born about 1840 in Virginia. He was united with a woman named Hannah and they came to Youngstown. Indications are that they were free prior to the Civil War. In an article of 8/13/1890, it talks about Frank being a well known plasterer in this area running off with Hannah's neice (Sarah Lewis--he called her Sallie) who was sent for from Virginia to care for Hannah who was 18 years older than her husband. There was an application for a marriage license that appeared in an 8/11/1890 Pittsburgh paper. I'm looking for Frank with the hope of tracing the two women in his life to their starting point in Virginia. Hannah turned out to be my g-g-g grandmother. I am not certain if Frank and Sarah remained in the Pittsburgh area.
