Title Census Population Schedule for Greensburg Ward 1, Westmoreland, Pennsylvania Description The U.S Census Population schedule for Greensburg Ward 1, Westmoreland, Pennsylvania, in 1930. Individuals are identified by name, titles and terms, gender, age, marital status, race relationship to head of household, birthplace, birth year, the last place of residence, and occupation. A notable resident listed in this census was First Lieutenant Frank B. Morgan (ca. 1920-1944). 1st LT. Frank B. Morgan was born in Greensburg, Pennsylvania on January 28, 1920, to Samuel and Edna Grace Morgan. Samuel Morgan was a first generation American of Northern Irish descent, working in the publishing industry as an editor and linotype operation. Edna Grace Morgan (née Black) was a native of Pennsylvania and appeared to be a housewife based on census evidence. Frank was the youngest of three boys, his siblings were Samuel Cree Morgan (1909-1990) and James Alexander Morgan (1912-1982). The Morgan’s owned a home on 17 Clopper Street in Greensburg, where Frank would reside until he entered active service. On December 6th 1939, Frank’s father passed at the age of 71; he was 19 at the time. Available records do not reveal whether 1st LT. Morgan (O-750431) entered the military by draft or enlistment; however, records reveal that he entered active service on April 27, 1942, out of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania at the age of 22. Leaving out of McDill, 1st LT. Morgan served with the 555th Bomber Squadron, a unit within the 386th Bomber Group. 1st LT. Morgan served his country with distinction, earning an Air Medal with Eight Oak Leaf Clusters. He died on December 20, 1944, four days into the Ardennes campaign. His death is listed as non-battle related, suggesting that he may have been one of the many B-26 crashes at takeoff, or upon landing. 1st LT. Morgan died just before the of the war at the age of 24. Morgan rest at Plot B Row 39 Grave 46 in Epinal American Cemetery France; a second memorial was organized by his family is at Parker Presbyterian Cemetery in Pennsylvania.

P. Coltrane in the long-running television hit The Dukes of Hazzard, James Best has built an impressive career on both stage and screen and has taught some of the film industry’s biggest stars. He is a veteran character actor, having appeared in eighty-three feature films, many of them considerable of historical significance: The Left Handed Gun, Shenandoah, The Caine Mutiny, Battle Cry, Sounder, and The Naked and the Dead, to name but a few. Born in Kentucky and reared in Indiana, Best’s first professional stage experience came in a European tour of My Sister Eileen, which was produced by Arthur Penn, who whould later go on to direct such film classics as The Left Handed Gun and Bonnie and Clyde. With the completion of the tour, Best returned to New York, where he performed in both summer and winter stock productions. Additionally, he performed ion stage throughout the Northeast, and toured nationally for almost 18 months in the Broadway musical Marinka. Upon his return to New York, Best was noticed by an executive for Universal Pictures. Under contract to Universal for two years, Best moved to California before embarking on a freelance career that firmly established his credentials in the performance arena. Since then, he has appeared in more than 600 television shows, including The Twilight Zone, Gunsmoke, The andy Griffith Show, Rawhide (with a then relatively unknown Clint Eastwood) and Wagon Train. He now lives and teaches in Central Florida, and is a Faculty Associate in the Department of Theatre.

Title FTU Peace Rally To Be Subdued Description While FTU began its infant stages of development in 1968, America was undergoing a tumultuous period of political dissent, aimed primarily at the Vietnam War. As college campuses through the nation divulged in protests, sit-ins, and demonstrations, UCF was just entering into existence. In this newspaper article, presumed to be 1968 or 1969, president Millican proclaims that the anticipated national "anti-Vietnam war moratorium" will not suspend classes, and that all protests should be a mater of "personal reflection," rather than as widespread popular demonstration.

Source Repository University of Central Florida Special Collections and Archives Transcript Classes at Florida Technological University will not be suspended Wednesday as the collegiate anti-Vietnam war moratorium is observed according to an announcement from Dr.Charles N. Millican, president. Dr. Millican said the moratorium had been discussed at a joint meeting of the student body presidents, the Council of Presidents, the Chancellor, and the staff and members of the Board of Regents and the consensus of the individuals was that the universities should remain open on Oct. 15. However, Dr. Millican said the opportunity for members of the University community to discuss and express publicly their views and sentiments on the Vietnam war would be offered. Walt Komanski, president of the FTU student body, said Oct. 15 would be designated as "Peace Wednesday, a day devoted to discussion, contemplation, and debate concerning the United States' involvement in the Vietnam War." Komanski said the hours of noon to 1 p.m. had been designated as the "Hour of Concern." He said during this hour an explanation of "Peace Wednesday" would be given with expression of varying points of view and the singing of songs of peace. Komanski said black arm bands will be worn on the campus during "Peace Wednesday" to show sympathy for the national movement to end the Vietnam War. "The students, faculty and administration who will participate in 'Peace Wednesday' will do so as a matter of personal reflection rather than public demonstration," the student body president said. https://richesmi.cah.ucf.edu/omeka/files/original/fb1e77390c5023cab3dad7a52f72bae9.tif af1d669f450edabbc90f50d96dd8a6aa Document A resource containing textual data.

The school again moved to a new building at 500 West Maxwell Street in 1952.

Title Headstone Inscription and Interment Record for First Lieutenant Frank Black Morgan Alternative Title Headstone Inscription and Interment Record for 1st Lt. Frank Morgan Subject World War II, 1939-1945 Veterans--Florida Army Cemeteries--Europe Description The headstone inscription and interment record for First Lieutenant Frank Black Morgan (1920-1944). 1st Lt. Morgan was born on January 28, 1920, to Samuel Morgan and Edna Grace Morgan. Samuel Morgan was a first generation American of Northern Irish descent, working in the publishing industry as an editor and linotype operation. Edna Grace Morgan (née Black) was a native of Pennsylvania. 1st Lt. Morgan had two older brothers: Samuel Cree Morgan (1909-1990) and James Alexander Morgan (1912-1982). The Morgans owned a home on 17 Clopper Street in Greensburg, where 1st Lt. Morgan resided until he entered active service on April 27, 1942, out of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, at the age of 22. 1st Lt. Morgan trained at MacDuill Field, a U.S. Army Air Corps which would become MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa, Florida, and then served with the 555th Bomber Squadron, a unit within the 386th Bomber Group. 1st Lt. Morgan served his country with distinction, earning an Air Medal with Eight Oak Leaf Clusters. He died on December 20, 1944, four days into the Ardennes Counteroffensive, also known as the Battle of the Bulge. His death is listed as non-battle related, suggesting that he may have been one of the many Martin B-26 Marauder crashes at takeoff or upon landing. 1st Lt. Morgan died just before the end of the World War II at the age of 24. 1st Lt. Morgan is buried in Plot B, Row 39, Grave 46 at Epinal American Cemetery and Memorial in France. A second memorial was organized by his family is at Parker Presbyterian Cemetery in Parker, Pennsylvania.

Title Draft Registration Card for First Lieutenant Frank Black Morgan Alternative Title Draft Registration Card for 1st Lt. Frank Morgan Subject World War II, 1939-1945 Veterans--Florida Description A draft registration card for First Lieutenant Frank Black Morgan (1920-1944). 1st Lt. Morgan was born in Greensburg, Pennsylvania, on January 28, 1920, to Samuel Morgan and Edna Grace Morgan. Samuel Morgan was a first generation American of Northern Irish descent, working in the publishing industry as an editor and linotype operation. Edna Morgan (née Black) was a native of Pennsylvania. 1st Lt. Morgan had two older brothers: Samuel Cree Morgan (1909-1990) and James Alexander Morgan (1912-1982). The Morgans owned a home on 17 Clopper Street in Greensburg, where 1st Lt. Morgan resided until he entered active service on April 27, 1942, out of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, at the age of 22. 1st Lt.

He died on December 20, 1944, four days into the Ardennes Counteroffensive, also known as the Battle of the Bulge.
