"Whose Morford Was He--John's or Tom's?" Enid Eleanor Adams, F. A. S. G. Transcribed from The Genealogical Magazine of New Jersey Volume 58, Numb er 3, Whole Number 210, May 1984, pages 78-84
John, born 10 Nov. 1747, died perhaps in the 1790s; probably the one listed in p. 80, List I, 1773-1774, in Kenn Stryker-Rodda's Revolutionary Census of N.J., shown as a resident of Burlington Co. He married Mary Chamberlain, 1753-1818, who moved from Trenton to Pittsburg, Pa. in the early 1800s with her sons John 1778-1869, James H., 1785-1843, Barton (whose dates of birth and death are unknown), another son whose name is not recollected by descendants, and a daughter Ann, 1791-1874, who had m. in 1814 Alexander Calhoun, who died in Trenton in 1826. (See "Three Morford Family Bibles," in GMNJ 52:57.) Other probable children of # 52 are Thomas Morford, 1776-1818, a soldier from Middlesex Co., who died unmarried in Baton Rouge, La.; and perhaps Sally Morford, born ca. 1777, who married 1803, in Burlington Co., Sylvanus Cook.
