1899 HISTORY: PA,Sullivan Co-Laporte: History of Sullivan county PA, 1899, by Thomas T Ingham [most fits well, some must check out]:
"Morgan Gavitt is a well-known and successful educator of Sullivan county, now holding the responsible position of principal of the Laporte High School and also as deputy county treasurer. He is one of the most reliable, progressive and popular young men of the community, and the success that he has achieved indeed due entirely to his own efforts.
Professor Gavitt traces his ancestry back to William Gavitt, a native of Massachusetts, who located in Susquehanna county, Pennsylvania, about the beginning of the nineteenth century. His son, Peter Gavitt, who is the grandfather of our subject, was born in Susquehanna county, July 10, 1827, and is now a well-known father in Laporte Township, Sullivan county. In his family were the following children: Temperance now the widow of William Stone, of Susquehanna county; Nancy, wife of Daniel Reynolds, of the same county; Prentice, who was killed at the battle of Chancellorsville; Peter, a farmer of Laporte township, Sullivan county; Mary, wife of Francis Rosencrants, of Susquehanna county; John, a retired tanner of the same county; and Thankful, wife of Albert Conklin, of Laporte.
Peter Gavitt, Jr., our subject’s father, was born in Susquehanna county, received a common-school education and became a tiller of the soil in his native county. In the spring of 1869 he came to Sullivan county and there purchased his present farm four miles south of Laporte. He married Miss Eliza, a daughter of John Rosencrants of Susquehanna county, and to them have been born six children: Polly, wife of E. J. Messenger of Susquehanna county; Louisa, wife of Troutman Simmons, of the state of Washington; Ruby, wife of William Low, of Laporte township, Sullivan county; Jennie, wife of J. W. Buck, of Sonestown; Lee R., a farmer on the old homestead; and Morgan, our subject.
A native of Sullivan county, Morgan Gavitt was born February 28, 1871, in Laporte township, where he attended the public schools, acquiring a good practical education. At the age of sixteen years he commenced teaching school, and has since successfully followed the profession, while for five years he also worked with lumber woods during his vacations. In 1892 he was elected county auditor of Sullivan county, which of….most creditably filled for one term. In 1894 he was chosen principal of the high school of Laporte, where he still remains, and he is acknowledged to be one of the most thorough and capable instructors in the county. Although, still a young man his popularity is established on a firm basis, that of his own well-tested merits. Politically he is an active member of the Democratic party, and socially belongs to Sonestown Lodge, member of I.O.O.F.
On the 30th of May, 1892, Mr. Gavitt was united in marriage with Miss Alda Buck, daughter of Jacob Buck and …. Glen Marr, Lycoming county, Pennsylvania, and to them have been born three children - Lou M., Blake, and Fredda.
