I am new to Wikipedia but I wanted to let whoever is editing this know that the town of Morgan City, Louisiana was named for Charles Morgan. The town was originally called Brashear. After the Civil War, Charles Morgan dredged the Atchafalya River channel and made the town of Brashear the home base of his operations. The name of the town was changed to Morgan City in 1876 in his honor. http://www.cityofmc.com/history.html
- This is good to know. I'd also like to add more information about the Morgan & Garrison partnership and the role it played in business with Cornelius Vanderbilt. I'm new, too, and this is the first I've realised that an article's talk page can be used as a place to gather information toward the future expansion of a stub.
