Hi..I meant to write when this post first came out. I do Morehouse research and would like to get the Nova Scotia Morehouse aspect of your family sorted out. Can you tell me a little more from your records, any dates, spouses, etc. I have many Williams as well as William Henry's in my files but no Gaytons or Wm. Avard's. (Although Avard was not an uncommon name in the mid 1600's in the area.) Three Morehouse brothers came to SW Nova Scotia in about 1783-84 and a fourth to New Brunswick. I work primarily on the three in Nova Scotia.
Thanks, Carol
