PENNSAUKEN, N.J. -- Situated on a homestead that was continuously inhabited from 1693 to the 1960s, the Griffth Morgan House celebrates three centuries of community history in its third-story museum (above). Many descendants of the Morgan family live as far away as Texas and California but stay in touch and have donated heirlooms to the museum.
