Morgan and served as West Virginia's First Lady from 1921-1925.[1] LifeAlma was born in 1877 to Albert and Isabelle Bennett in Monongalia County, West Virginia.[2] She taught school in Marion County, West Virginia.[1] This is where she met Ephraim F. Morgan, and the two married in September 1903.[2] As first lady, she ardently opposed the consumption of alcohol and actively campaigned for a woman's right to vote. She provided design ideas to architect Walter F. Martens in the design of the West Virginia Governor's Mansion. They moved into the newly constructed mansion six days before leaving office. After leaving office, the Morgans lived in Washington, D.C. and in Fairmont, West Virginia. The couple had two children. One child died at the age of fifteen months.[2][3] After Ephraim died in 1950, Alma moved to Morgantown, West Virginia, where she died on April 5, 1960.[1] References1. ^1 2 "West Virginia's First Ladies," West Virginia Division of Culture and History, June 2007. {{s-start}}{{s-hon}}{{succession box|title=First Lady of West Virginia|before=Edna Brady Cornwell|after=Bertie Ison Martin Conley|years=1921 – 1925}}{{s-end}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Morgan, Alma Bennett}}2. ^1 2 {{cite book|last1=Callahan|first1=James Morton|title=Genealogical and Personal History of the Upper Monongahela Valley, West Virginia Volume 3|date=1912|publisher=Lewis Historical Publishing Company|location=New York, NY|pages=956|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=FGAMAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA956&lpg=PA956&dq=Alma+Bennett+Morgan&source=bl&ots=prXzIv3YLJ&sig=uLfWWkNqW0I2KkzD24BfhrS07d4&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwientLv7L_QAhXllFQKHcYtB1k4ChDoAQg6MAs#v=onepage&q=Alma%20Bennett%20Morgan&f=false|accessdate=23 November 2016}} 3. ^{{cite book|last1=Capace|first1=Nancy|title=The encyclopedia of West Virginia.|date=1999|publisher=Somerset Publishers|location=St. Clair Shores, Mich.|isbn=0-403-09843-2|page=100|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=K30UKW0aewgC&pg=PA100&lpg=PA100&dq=Alma+Bennett+Morgan&source=bl&ots=C2q3RsJJOz&sig=akzAMgR8xVt4uOdm6lmf-m5FL34&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiUnvH27L_QAhVDj1QKHWzbAnE4FBDoAQgqMAQ#v=onepage&q=Alma%20Bennett%20Morgan&f=false|accessdate=23 November 2016}} 10 : 1877 births|1960 deaths|American suffragists|Educators from West Virginia|First Ladies of West Virginia|Morgan family of West Virginia|People from Fairmont, West Virginia|People from Monongalia County, West Virginia|American temperance activists|People from Morgantown, West Virginia |
