Morralley / Morroley / Morrallee / Morolley Family
« on: Monday 05 May 14 13:30 BST (UK) »
Hello! :)

Im looking for relatives or information on the Morralley family in particular descendants of the following

Matthew Morroley  (1717 Hexham - 1759 Ravensworth) married to Margaret Hutton (2nd Oct 1715 Gateshead - ?)

They had 5 children (that i know of)

Thomas Morroley 1739 - 1791

Matthew Morroley 1749 - 1834

James Morroley 1747 - ?

Henry Morroley 1753 - 1833 married to Elizabeth Sheard in 1774 (my 7th great grandfather)

Roger Morroley 1757 - 1793 married to Ann Edington in 1780


I know nothing on Henry's brothers apart from Roger's marriage and would love to know more!

Have you checked FreeREG for Marriages?

A Henry MORALEE married 1810 in Lamesley

You have also possibly missed a Child for Henry/Elizabeth baptised Lamesley;
RALPH, 13 April 1788, Father Henry, buried 18 July 1789

Possible Burial also;
MARGARET Moralee, 29 Aug 1794 (no age given)
