The Mortons of Maritime Canada:

A Preliminary Descendants Chart

Compiled by Sanford "Sandy" Wilbur [December 2001]

As I have worked on various Nova Scotia and New Brunswick families, I've compiled a lot of miscellaneous records that will be of interest to other researchers. Below is a preliminary chart on the MORTON family, "planters" from Massachusetts who settled first in Nova Scotia, then many moved across the Bay of Fundy to New Brunswick.

To see the records that I used to compile this line, go to the Morton Bibliography. Two things to point out: (1) I have only been working "seriously" on a small segment of the MORTON family, so much of the information is from secondary and tertiary sources. Don't accept any of it for fact without checking it out, yourselves; and (2) there are a lot of names of Mortons in the bibliography that I have not been able to link with the names on this chart. You may find somebody you're looking for there, if not on the chart.

Comments, questions, additions, corrections always welcome. Please e-mail me. Sorry there isn't a name index with this; I may get around to one someday. For now, you'll just have to scroll.
