Thomas MORGAN 1
- Born: Cir 1475, Kingsthorpe, Northamptonshire, England
- Marriage (1): Alice (Elizabeth) BURGOYNE
- Died: Nov 1546, Kingsthorpe, Northamptonshire, England aged about 71
General Notes:
The founder of the family was a certain Thomas Morgan, of
Kingsthorpe. He had three sons '97 Francis, the ancestor
of the Heyford branch of the family ; John, who died
before his father, leaving his body to be buried before
the rood in the church of All Saints, Northampton ; and
William, the ancestor of the Morgans of Kingsthorpe.
Thomas Morgan died in November, 1546, and was
buried at Kingsthorpe. His will, dated August loth,
1542, is a particularly interesting one to genealogists,
as it settles once for all the relationship of Francis,
William, and Thomas Morgan. Baker, in a tentative
pedigree, makes Francis and Thomas brothers. The
will in question shows that they were, on the contrary,
father and son. After various bequests to his wife,
Alice ; to his two sons, Francis Morgan and William
iSIorgan ; to Thomas and Anthony Morgan, sons of his
eldest son, Francis ; and to Thomas and Alice, children
of his son John Morgan (late of Northampton), deceased,
the testator makes the following provision : see:
