Death: Dec. 2, 1904
Richfield
Sevier County
Utah, USA
Ms. Maria Morrison of this city died yesterday forenoon at the age of 58 years. She had been an invalid for nearly two years and for weeks had been confined to her bed in a almost helpless condition as a result of a stroke of paralysis. She was a widow of the late William Morrison, whom she married at Mr. Pleasant in 1863.
Mrs. Morrison was a native of Denmark and came to this country with her widowed mother in 1859. They settled first at Ephraim, then moved to Mt. Pleasant, and, after her marriage in 1863, the deceased came with her husband to Sevier County. They were among the first settlers of Richfield, but had to retire to Sanpete County on account of the Indian troubles in early times. After peace had been established they resettled here and there until their deaths. Seven children were born to the couple, all of whom are living. Fred Hansen of this city is now the only living member of the deceased's brothers.
