[Note: Researcher Gordon Lloyd from Canada says that William's wife was the widow Mary Winter. William's will contained a legacy to Thomas Winter who was described as his son-in-law. In this period, the term son-in-law was not restricted to a daughter's husband, but could also mean step-son. The will of Mary Morland bequeaths a yearly interest on her estate to her son, Thomas Winter for his lifetime, and then leaves the principal sum to the children of said Thomas Winter, and to the children of her son William Morland. Thomas Winter was an ironmonger and married Anne Forth. Anne was the daughter of Lancelot Forth, Alderman and twice Mayor of Kendal. Thomas was unanimously voted in as a burgess, later Alderman and also Mayor of Kendal for one term. In 1735 he resigned as Alderman as he had returned to Hutton.]

In this same letter, John explains the following discoveries: from a deed dated 1712 Jacob Morland of Capplethwaite in Killington sold land in the parish of Morland, the place hereafter called Millflats. "Therefore there can be little doubt but Jacob Morland descended from John Morland of Millflat whose wife embraced the Quakers Religion hence the registers which have been found in the books of the Society of Friends and I shall therefore make out his pedigree in that line and not from the family of Morland who were located at Great Stickland, a township also in the Parish of Morland but in a different manor or lordship to Millflat and not in Slegill. The families at Millflats and Great Strickland were most probably related but I never saw any deeds or writings in the custody of my family which at all described them of Great Stickland but on the contrary always described them of Newbystones or Millflats.
The correct line of descent, of which family, I sent you......I went to Morland and saw at Bolton a gentleman who had made out a pedigree and sent it to Mr. Maude but on inpecting some old gravestones at a place which had formerly been a Quaker burying ground there appeared to have been a family of the name of Morland buried there some of whom had evidently been Quakers and owners of Millflat and the registers of this family were no where to be found amongst the registers in the Church of England. There appears to be a ......in the dates of that copy of registers...I with some difficulty obtained a copy of the registers of the Millflat Family out of the Quakers books kept at Penrith. After having the copies of the registers of births, marriages and burials of both these families it left me in doubt which was the right descent but in searching amongst all the old family useless deeds which remained in my possession, I found one, of which I have sent you the above extract which when taken together with the ancient history written by Miss Jane Wilson, clearly proves my family were the owners of Newbystones and Millflats.
Your ancestor was Thomas Morland the eldest son of John Morland of Millflats commonly called Captain Morland. We have no direct link with the Great Strickland family mentioned in the Parish Church Registers of late date because I know that in 1690 your ancestor was practicing as a Barrister and my ancestor following the Virginia and Maryland tobacco trade, and my ancestor having by his merchandize obtained sufficient, I suppose, to enable him to become possessed of the family estate in 1712 sold Millflat as appears by the above deed at any rate the pedigree written out by Mrs. Jane Wilson though erroneous in some respects says that Capt. Morland's wife turned Quaker hence the Registers of baptism and burials and marriage in the Quakers book.
The Quakers religion commenced only in 1642 or 1652. I forget which and have not time to ascertain it. The registers of baptisms of the Great Strickland family are of much later date than 1790 and therefore, neither your ancestors nor mine could be buried there...............and it appears that this old gent wished to be laid near his wife, suffered himself to be ...up in the Quakers burying ground and it appears by this last register that John Morland's father of Millflats Christian name was William.........."
