TIMOTHY MORTON, farmer; P. O. Conover; was
born in Howell Township, Monmouth Co., N. J., Feb. 22, 1799, and is
a son of John and Mary (Longstreet) Morton, who were both
natives of New Jersey; they had eleven children, of whom Timothy
is the only one now living; John Morton was one of the
patriots of the war of Independence, where he served a period of six
months; he and his wife both died at advanced ages. Our
subject was left very early in life to battle for himself, and spent
his boyhood days farming with various people until 16 years of age;
then he commenced work in a manufactory of all kinds of cloth, which
he followed until 1831; at this time, he emigrated to Ohio and
bought his present farm of 60 acres, in Sec. 11, Brown Township,
Miami Co.,; this he has changed from its primeval state to a good
degree of cultivation. Mr. Morton
has held the office of Supervisor in Brown Township eight
years, and feels interested in forwarding all public improvements.
In New Jersey, in 1820, he married Mary Gurney, who was a
native of that State, and died in Brown Township, Miami Co., in
1858; by this union there were six children, of whom five are now
living. In December, 1859, Timothy Morton married for
his second companion Mary J. Ayers, of New Jersey, who was
born in Burlington Co. May 9, 1808, and is the daughter of
Zadock and Mary (Smith) Green; she has buried two husbands and
is now living with the third one.
