Biography
Enoch Morris was born March 12, 1756. He married Mary Caldwell March 19, 1776. [1] An Enoch Morris served in the War of 1812, but he would have been 56 years old by then. I doubt that this is Morris-16537. [2] He died in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, in 1817. [3]
Research Notes
His date and place of birth were indicated on his original profile, but I've not found the sources yet. He was evidently born in Hilltown Township which may be the reason for the following citation?
- Hilltown Baptist Churchyard, Chalfont, Bucks County, Pennsylvania, USA
Be aware that the family Search tree L189-83P for Enoch has the wrong date entered for his marriage. It is not 1766, when he would have been 10 years old.
