I am Thomas Morrison's granddaughter (George Morrison is my great grandfather). I live in New Zealand.
My husband posted the request for George Morrison Rings end.
Thanks so much for the fantastic amount of information you have given me.
I am also interested in any Information you may get on George Morrisons father who was John Morrison. I don't know his mothers name at all.
The Gould information is relevant to me also.

Thanks again  Val
