Biography
Agnes was born in 1813, a daughter of John Morton and Margaret Turpie; her death record confirms the names of her (presumed) parents, despite their seemingly improbable ages. She worked as a weavers winder - possibly initially for her father, who had been a hand loom weaver.
Research Notes
There must be some missing records which would provide the true story; meanwhile, I will leave this profile as a start point for future research.
