Darn it!

It seems like we might have hit a dead end and unfortunately I cant find anyone else whos researched the Morton family of this area. Those that have are as stuck as me!

Ive looked for more information on Andrew but he seems to have vanished. Doesnt seem to be in the 1841 census and I cant find a death record for him before then either.

And with no apparent marriage of any other John and Isabel to go from its all leading no where.

Think I might just have to put it back in the drawer and hopefully wait for Family Search etc to catch up with transcriptions.

Just a totally different query, can you think why three brother would all be missing from the 1891 and 1901 census's. Its some of the later Mortons and all three of them dont appear to be on there, but do reappear I think in 1911. Just more unanswered questions Im afraid.
