  • Notes 
    • From Peter Morrison's (PM) family tree
    • DNA Match - my brother and I are matches to Cindy-Lee Goss - a descendant of John and Eleanor. Therefore I am inclined to think this John is a brother of my 2xgreat grandmother, Margery (Morrison) Allen.
    • 11 Jan 1789 Baptism info confirmed via review of Church of Ireland records in Dublin - 2017
    • c1832-1843 Location - By 1832 John is in Chinguacousy, Peel as son John was born there, as were all children through to Matthew, who was born c1843. This matches with a newspaper write-up for daughter Sarah on her 90th birthday, which says they moved to Dorchester when she was 3 years old.
