The History of the Several Towns, Manors, and Patents of the County of Westchester (1881 revised edition, Vol. I)
Morgan was a preacher of considerable note, and several of his discourses and sermons were published ; among them, one on the death of his eldest son, Joseph, a graduate of Yale College, 1723, and died the same year; a " Reply to a Railer against the Doctrine of Election," 1724; "Sin its own Punishment," 1728; and " Love to our Neighbors," third edition, 1749." In his letters dated at Freehold in 1721 and 1722, he speaks of his two sons, one aged 17 and the other 11, as "good scholars," and "one other son a little older;" this is evidently the Joseph whose death is above alluded to.d
" At a town meeting held by ye freeholders of East Chester ye 26th of January, 17", it was voted that Moses Fowler should have and enjoy all ye land between ye land of Wm. Fowler that he bought of Joseph Morgan."
On the 19th of February, 1717, James Morgan was appointed collector of Eastchester.
On the 15th of February, 1725, the names of James Morgan and Thomas Morgan appear as freeholders of the town.
To Mr. Morgan, as pastor of the Congregational or Presbyterian church at Eastchester, appears to have succeeded the celebrated William Tennent.
