I am still searching for information about this family that was listed in the 1850 Pike County census: John Morton age 21, farmer, born in Illinois Rebecca Morton, age 20, born in Illinois Emily J. Morton, age 2/12, born in Illinois I believe John died a year or two after this census and that possibly Rebecca remarried. I found Emily Jane Morton married to Hugh Gauntt of Spring Creek, Pike County Mar 22, 1865. I am trying to find out what happened to Rebecca.
