        ALFRED G. MORGAN effectively prepared himself for the profession of
civil engineering, of which he is now one of the successful and prominent
representatives of the younger generation in the city of Youngstown, the
vial industrial city that is the judicial center and metropolis of Mahoning
County.
        Mr. Morgan was born at Girard, Trumbull County, Ohio, in April,
1890, a son of Walter and Jennie (Brown) Morgan, who still maintain their
home at Girard, where the father is a skilled steel worker in the mills at
that place. The paternal grandparents of the subject of this sketch were
William and Susan Morgan, who were born and reared in Wales, where their
marriage was solemnized and where all of their children were born. William
Morgan came to the United States after the death of his wife and
established his home at Youngstown, Ohio, where he passed the remainder of
his life.
        In the public schools of his native place, Alfred G. Morgan
continued his studies until he had duly profited by the advantages of the
high school, and in 1908, when eighteen years of age, he took up a
technical course of study and gained the practical experience that
admirably equipped him for successful work as a civil engineer. Here he has
been engaged in the private practice of his profession since 1920, and he
maintains his office at 150 West Rayen Avenue. He is aligned loyally in the
ranks of the republican party, is affiliated with the Masonic fraternity
and the Knights of Pythias, and is a member of the Ohio State Engineering
Society. He is actively identified with the United Presbyterian Church of
Youngstown, in which he is director of the choir, his musical talent being
of high order.
        He married in 1915, Miss Nettie Armitage, a daughter of William and
Lillian (Shook) Armitage, and to this union was born one child, Alfred G.,
Jr. Mrs. Morgan died in 1918.
