DEATH OF SAMUEL MORRIS, ESQ. On the morning of yesterday, at his house, Strand Street, in this town, aged sixty-six years, Samuel Morris, Esq., Captain Kerry Militia, and formerly for many years High Provost of Tralee, an event deeply deplored by every individual who had the pleasure of knowing him, and to the severe affliction of his mourning family, and of a circle of relatives and friends as highly honourable and truly respectable as any in this county. The illness previous to his demise was but short, and the shock occasioned by his death was the more keenly felt by his numerous friends. Mr. Morris was a gentleman of the most kind and friendly disposition, and (in the palmy days now past) of unbounded hospitality and the utmost amicableness of manner. Ref: Kerry Evening Post, Tralee, Wednesday, April 4, 1838.
Samuel married Sarah Stoughton GUN [14184] [MRIN: 4740] before 1791. (Sarah Stoughton GUN [14184] was born about 1769, died in Oct 1850 and was buried in Ratass Irl.)
