Documentation:
* Most of the Birth, Death and Marriage dates comes from the John Martin White Family Bible. (John Martin White was the father of Sarah Franklin White). Some dates differ slightly in other sources and this is probably due to transcription mistakes.
* John Morris left a will dated 1831 in which he named all of his children.

Notes:
* John Morris and his wife Sarah Franklin White were early settlers of Franklin County, Georgia.
* The White family Bible was listed in the Georgia Genealogist and the original is supposed to be at the Virginia Historical Society in Richmond, Virginia.
