Hi Andy, Thank you so much for the wonderful information.  Thomas Morton father Andrew wife Ann Stewart was my ggf (chillingham) married Elisabeth Morton father Robert Morton, his father, also, Andrew Dick Morton,  Belford Catholic origin.  They can be traced to Lucker  and Bamborough.  I think you may be right in thinking nc baptism.  I have looked at Selby Morton and this name is predominent in the family.  Given the amount of children Andrew and Ann had, I discounted that line.  I am going to have a look at the William Morton who is living nearby in Chillingham.   Thoroughly enjoyed reading info.  Once again thank you.

Hi

I wondered if you could please help me with Andrew Morton.  I have spent 20 years on this with no success.

Thomasina Morton (Born Belford 1883) Father Thomas Morton Chillingham mother Elisabeth Morton Belford father Robert Morton Belford.

Robert Morton father Andrew Morton is deceased by 1841, but I have his father as Andrew Dick Morton buried Lucker.  Father John Morton and Martha Downey.   

Thomas' father is Andrew Morton 1841 born Northumberland. 1851 census states born Ellingham.  Also living in the house is a granddaughter Annie born Ellingham, but she was born in Eglingham and think this is a transcription error. I cannot find him on 1861 census.  Died 1866 and is buried in Chillingham.  His first wife is Dorothy child Isabella (possible mother's name) living Heckley Fence, Alnwick.  Next wife Ann Stewart son George (possible father's name).  They then move to Chillingham Newtown. 

Thank you for your very kind offer of help.   Having both sets of great-grandparents as Mortons of Belford and Chillingham have had me going around in circles for years.

Thanks everyone.  This one certainly has me beat. I have John Thompson as father Richard (? another alien abduction).  Elisabeth his wife is widowed in 1841 with son Richard in Rothbury.  I can find no marriage for these either.  Rothbury is such a small place and it seems like most of them are called Thompson.  This is definitely the worst line I have followed and is even beginning to make Irish records look like a piece of cake.  Any help greatly appreciated I am totally at a loss.  :-\
