Longford / Re: Morton Family of Ballymahon, Co Longford

Here attached are, as far as I can ascertain, the children of Thomas Mortons first and second marriages. I cannot find (on the irishgenealogy.ie site) a suitable birth record for William from the first marriage, but I added him as on the 1911 census for 25 Newington Avenue, Duncairn ED are
Morton May Elizabeth 30 Female Boarder Church of Ireland Co Limerick National School Teacher Read and write - Single - - - -
Morton William 25 Female Boarder Church of Ireland Co Louth Typist G. P. O Read and write - Single
so very likely to be a brother and Co Louth birth would tally with Drogheda and Townley Hall.

Hi
I have no connection to the Morton family, but attach something which I hope is of use/interest. I was working on a poetry book about forgotten Irish women poets and came across a May Morton with only an approximate date of birth. This piqued my curiosity. She, too, was a daughter of Thomas Morton the Land Steward of Townley Hall and Millicent Guy. Mary Elizabeth (May) was born on 18 February 1879 in Garryspillane (Hospital (place!) Registration District, Co Limerick).
