No, Uncle Buck was not a VMI cadet

Well, at least he wasn't the William H. Morgan who graduated from VMI in 1859, alongside one of the Hutters of "Sandusky."

Greg Starbuck of Historic Sandusky sent me these pictures of that cadet along with a couple of his poker buddies. (They actually wrote down the results of one of their games on the back of one of these pictures.)

After some digging, I did find a copy of Buck's obituary. It says that he was a graduate of Emory & Henry College, which is what I suspected all along.

So, after this clarification, I know of only one VMI graduate in the family: Gen. William M. Stokes (father of cousin Wayne S. Goodall).

But, we do have 2 Citadel graduates: my dad, and Lt. Cdr. Breckenridge Morgan, USN.

Anybody know of other military school grads in the extended family?
