Lewis H. Morgan was born in Aurora, Cayuga 

 County, N. T., November 21, 1818. Ho was 

 graduated by Union College, Schenectady, in the 

 class of 1840. Returning from college to Aurora, 

 Mr. Morgan joined a secret .society composed of 

 the young men of the village and known as the 

 Grand Order of the Iroquois. This had a great 

 influence npon his future career and studies. 

 The order was instituted for sport and amuse- 

 ment, but its organization was modeled on the 

 governmental system of the Six Natiou-s ; and, 

 chiefly under Mr. Morgan's direction and lead- 

 ership, the objects of the order were extended, 

 if not entirely changed, and its purposes 

 improved. To become better acquainted with 

 the social polity of the Indians, young Morgan 

 visited the aborigines remaining in New York, 

 a mere remnant, biit yet retaining to a great 

 extent their ancient laws and customs; and he 

 went 80 far as to be adopted as a member by the 

 Senecas. Before the council of the order, in 

 the years 1844, 1845, and 1846, he read :i series of 

 papers on the Iroquois, which were published 

 under the nom, de plume of "Skenandoah." 

 Mr. Morgan died in Rochester, N. Y., Decem- 

 ber 17,1881.
