Samuel Morey academic paper edit

I'm doing a history paper on Samuel Morey and will be updating this page as I go along. Dlenmn 04:19, 11 November 2005 (UTC)Reply

My paper is available at [1] in case anyone wants to help expand this article with information from it. Dlenmn 23:38, 10 January 2006 (UTC)Reply


Morey family tree edit

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)Reply

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

Not according to the references used here. Do you have a cite or three? - Denimadept (talk) 19:01, 18 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

Obsolete main reference edit

The link to the "single source" mentioned at the top of the article is obsolete. It retrieves a pointer to a login-protected site to which the source may have moved. Mdmi (talk) 19:42, 9 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

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)Reply
