Elizabeth Manigault Morris

• American

Elizabeth Manigault Morris, born into the American gentry Izard-Manigault families of South Carolina's Lowcountry gentry, carried forward two influential regional lineages through her marriage to Lewis Morris and the large family they raised — twelve children whose lives extended the Morris presence across the coastal plantations. Her story, shaped by the social world of Charleston and the household established at Willtown Plantation, ends abruptly in the 1822 hurricane that struck Sullivan's Island, a storm remembered for the devastation it brought to the barrier coast and the families who lived there. - AsNotedIn
