Portia Ann Morris was the oldest known child of Stephen Augustus Morris & Martha Alston Poston. Portia is found in the 1880 (Saint James Santee Parish) Charleston, S.C. census. This is the only place that I have been able to find any documentation on her. That census gives her a DOB of 1868, which is what I used for her birth. For those who are not aware, the 1890 census was destroyed by fire. Portia is missing in the 1900 census.

Portia Ann & her younger sister Sallie Rebecca married brothers. Portia married Robert Samuel Ackerman and Sallie married Joseph Thomas Ackerman, Robert's younger brother. Portia and Sallie also had a first cousin named Sarah Morris Shultz that married Robert and Joseph's younger brother Curry Ackerman. All of the above mentioned are buried at Halfway Creek Cemetery.
