Hi, I am searching for a relative, Johnston Morton born 1825 Longford to Edward Morton, who is thought to be a sergeant in the Irish Constabulary, although no record seems to exist for this name. Does any one know of a resource to confirm the birth and the military career of Edward Morton?
Johnston Morton married Clarinda Gellately in 1845 in Clonmel but his whereabouts are a mystery until his first born in Birkenhead in 1860. Any help would be very much appreciated

Did you contact Jim Herlihy re: his offer to get Edward Morton's record?
