This information is from "The New Loyalist Index" by Paul J. Bunnell:

MORRELL, John
Born 1733; died June 18, 1818; married Newburg, NY to Elizabeth, who died 1816; Children - 6.
From Long Island, New York. Settled Greenwich and Kingston, New Brunswick, Canada


This is from "Early New Brunswick Probate Records, 1785 to 1835" by R. Wallace Hale, page 318:

Here's what I got on my tree. Ninian Chaloner born on February 16 1746 in Newport, Newport, Rhode Island. He married Mary Scribner. After the American Revolutionary War they moved to Queens County, New Brunswick. Looks like 3 families Chaloner, Scribner, and Morrell are linked some how.
