    [cos1776 Note of Caution: Something is awry in this source.
    a. Morgan claims marriage occurred in 1782 (could this be a different wife?), and
    b. son Gerard Morgan (of p 36) suspiciously has the same 8 Jun 1784 birthdate as another Gerard Morgan (of p 84) for whom he claimed father Nicholas Morgan.
