The probate papers for Thomas' grandfather, Thomas Morgan, name as heirs the surviving children of Page Morgan: Thomas Morgan, Carol Morgan, Mrs. Grace Norris, and Mrs. Ethel Mae Johnson. The obituary of T. P. Morgan, who died in 1926 in Palermo, mentions a surviving sister, Mrs. Grace Norris of San Ramon. T.P.'s great-granddaughter, Gayla Jennings, fills in that T.P. stands for Thomas Perry. The connection by both Thomas and T.P. to Mrs. Grace Norris as a sister is the evidence we have that Thomas Perry is the son of Page and Rebecca. T.P.'s death certificate names his father as Perry Morgan, born in Iowa; the mother's name is blank. So that must be in error if Page is his father. There is a family connection to the name Perry --- Rebecca Carmichael had a younger brother Perry who was with Page and Rebecca's family in the 1870 census.

Besides naming his three children, T.P.'s obituary also names two step-children of him as Mrs. W.M. Mills of Vacaville, and Mrs. S.D. Jenks of Winters.
