MORTON, ([NOTE, 1962: Beside of the Morton graves are 2 other Large (Stack Rock) carved stone vaults. We were told that they were man & wife by the name of Morton or Martin, could be T. & J. Morton. 1962 note][update: The T & J Morton graves were found in Marion county Ill in the Old Covenanter Cemetery. Additional note by Brian F. McLaughlin a descendant of Alexander Morton: The father of the entire group, died in 1829 and it was often stated he was buried in �the Morton Family Cemetery� which may have been what is now the current "Pigg Cemetery."
Also, my GGGG grandfather James Morton lost his first wife there in Lincoln County � Mary Foil Breckenridge/Brackenridge, who died in 1828. Also, James� son William Brown Morton (he was the first of two named this name) died in 1839 in Lincoln, Tenn. My James Morton line waited a few more years after Thomas and Jane before coming to Marion, Illinois. I would make the assumption that Alexander Morton, Mary Foil Breckenridge Morton and William Brown Morton � at the very least � could be buried in the Pigg Cemetery or on the old Morton family lands that are nearby, Brian McLaughlin fbmac@aol.com)0133/0137/0138
