Welcome to the Morton Heritage Blog

This blog will document the ancestry of the Mortons of Moore County, Texas all the way back to 17th Century England. For privacy sake, we will not document anyone born after the turn of the 20th Century. Although eventually we may branch out, for now I would like to limit the blog to the direct Morton ancestors, their spouses, and siblings. Please feel free to leave comments if you have any other stories or information. Every Ancestor considered official by this blog must have independent verification beyond inclusion in someone else's family tree therefore evidence such as census or marriage records will be provided. Since we have become so scattered I thought this would be a good way to help remember where we come from and help us teach our kids what ties us together.

Generation 3

There are records of 5 children born to Thomas and Elizabeth Morton. Those children are Richard, Thomas2, Anne, Judith, and John3. In this generation, our direct ancestor is Thomas Jr. Our Uncle John3 is later known as Captain John Morton. There is more information on him that I'll share at a later date.
