Morey family tree
Can anyone place Samuel Morey on the Morey family tree? At last count, over 10,000 Moreys are catalogued, but poor Samuel does not even have his parents' or children's names in this article. --Wloveral (talk) 03:24, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

He was the second of seven children to Israel Morey (1735-1809) and Martha Palmer (1733-1810).

 * I have updated the link. There are plenty of references at the link; someone just has to copy them to the article. Dlenmn (talk) 16:08, 2 June 2016 (UTC)
