Morgan Hill - Because of Lord Murugan?
Morgan Hill, CA is where I stay. But I am very curious about the name. Back in India, in my home state, we have a God named Lord Murugan. His primary place of residence is considered to be the Hilly regions of the state. We have atleast 6 major temples of Lord Murugan all on top of some Hill. So the moment I landed in Morgan Hill, I was curious to know history of the name. There is a wonderful hill in the city's west side (Nice view from my window). And I like the Lord Murugan. So naturally my conclusion is that I have come to the abode of Lord Murugan - Murugan Hill or Morgan Hill. Of course the official history of the city states that the name is behind the people Diana and Hiram Morgan Hill who built place. But to me, I still want to believe that it is a Lord Murugan Hill. You may think I am mad, but My Guru indeed does these things to make sure I am happy! Jai Gurudev!
