Hello, my first message on this list. I'm from Melbourne Australia tracing my wife's American ancestors and interested in finding family history for a lady named Martha Ellen Morse. She was born at Appleton on March 1st 1841, she married Henry Webb at Montville on August 21st 1858 and had two children, Clara Ellen and William Riley. Henry died at Rockland, Knox County on August 12th 1863 and later Martha married William J Brown and had another five children. Martha died at Belfast on May 2nd 1906. I'm attempting to find her family background and I picked up an entry in the 1850 US Federal Census for Rockland which seems to indicate her father was Adam Morse, the mother's name I cannot decipher. Can anyone help me identify the branch of the Morse family Martha Ellen comes from. From way over here there certainly seems to be a lot of Morse families and not being too familiar with the various branches of the family I thought there may well be a few 'experts' on this list who can help me. Best wishes from an Aussie flounderer ! James Twycross.

Judy: Thank you very much for the reply. You certainly filled in a lot of holes for me and got me going in the right direction. I look forward to reading up on the family. Polly was the first extended family I started to research. Polly's daughter Sarah born in Sutton 1798 (Siley/Sila) married Charles Carroll (The first, my grandson is #7) in Croydon, NH 15 Jan 1817 and died and is buried there July 1881. She and Charles has 12 children. Again, thank you, Charlie

Don & Kay I have been trying to connect my husbands Father, who was Frank Leslie Morse, born June 30, 1875., in Brunswick, Me. his parents were Charles Thomas Morse, son of Stephen Morse, who was the son of Ephraim and Rachel Noyes., Ephraim 's Parents were Anthony & Mrs. Susannah Wallace Jones. Charles T. & Laura Cobb were marriedJuly 23, 1868., in Brunswick, Charles T. was s farmer he died December 1880, he and Laura ahd Mabel Morse in 1880 she was 10 years old, and they also had Charles jr. 8 years old, Frank 5 years old and a daughter with the name of Winnagenne at 2 years old.., let me tell you, my husband says that he never meet any of his uncle, or his aunts, as his father very seldom talked about his family, so there fore my husband doesn't know very much, apparently Charles T. was married before he married Laura Cobb, he was married to a Ruth Atkins, they had a son together who was Stephn Melvill Morse. I can go back to the first anthony, up to Deacon Joseph, and then anthony, to ephriam, but really need something to connect to Charles T. to Stephen. who died in Florida, Judy Morse

Researching Polly (Mary-Molly?) Morse who married Daniel Elliott 10 Mat 1797 in Northbridge (Sutton) MA. Several Morse families show in the records there, but I have been unable to connect to any. Most (not all) of the Sutton families came from Essex county originally. Any help or direction will be appreciated. Thanks, Charlie

James, I'm going to assume that when you put appleton, montville, You are talking about the State of Maine, There are a lot of Morse's in Massachusetts, but there is The Anthony Line of Morse that went into Maine, and I assume when You say they were from those towns, that they might be from the Anthony Line Judymo
