John B. MORTON was born January 28, 1831 in Lexington, Fayette Co., Kentucky. Lutitia Ellen BURNETT was born June 16, 1842 in Missouri. They married on January 23, 1859 in Tipton, Maniteau Co., Missouri.
Lutitia and John are found in the 1860 Tarrant, Hopkins Co., Texas census, where John enlisted in the Confederate 9th Texas Infantry, Co. G, on October 8, 1861. In the 1870 federal census, they are found in Dallas, Dallas Co.,Texas. In 1880, they are living in Clay Co., Texas. Before the family moved back to Dallas, Dallas Co., Texas, I believe they lived in Wichita Falls.
On January 04, 1898 in Dallas, Dallas Co., Texas John B. died. On March 24, 1895 in Dallas, Dallas Co., Texas, Lutitia Ellen died. They are both buried at the Oak Cliff Cemetery in Dallas.
Lutitia and John had the following children:
WILLIAM ARCHIBALD MORTON
BENJAMIN EDWARD MORTON
GABRIELLA MORTON
HENRY CLIFFORD MORTON
CLYDE MORTON
RESEARCH NOTE
I need the parents and siblings of Lutitia Ellen BURNETT.
According to the 1880 TX, Clay Co. Federal Census, both parents of Lutitia were born in Virginia. All source documents I have for Lutitia show she was born in Missouri. I have not been able to find her listed on the 1850 census with her parents (she was born 1842).
If you have any clues or information on Lutitia Ellen Burnett, please contact me.
