Could this be the son of Evelyn Morton who died in 1914?


DEATH OF A PROVOST The Rev. Cvril Evelyn Morton. Provost of Coventry Cathedral, died suddenly from heart failure in a Leamington nursing home to day. He was 46 years age. Installed Sub-Dean of Coventry Cathedral and instituted rector of St. Michael's in September 1929, he became Provost and Proctor in Convocation last year.

27 July 1932 - Gloucestershire Echo - Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, England

There's 2 columns about his funeral service in Coventry Herald 05 August 1932.
It took place at 11.30am at Coventry Cathedral.
His coffin had the details of his birth & death
Cyril Evelyn Morton, First Provost of Coventry Cathedral born 28 November 1885 died 27th July 1932.

Family mourners listed as
Mrs Morton (widow0
Mr & Mrs Fiddian (brother in law & sister)
Mr D Pellatt (Uncle)
Sir Alexander Carlyon (father in law)
Miss Carlyon (sister in law)
Colonel & Mrs Carlyon (brother in law & sister in law)
Major and Mrs C C R Neville and Miss E Smallwood (the Provosts Secretary)
There isn’t a relationship recorded against Major & Mrs Neville’s names.

Yes, that's the correct family.

This pdf ( a Google search result) mentions Winifred Annie's husband and his extended family:

MORTON the very reverend Cyril Evelyn Morton of The Provosts House Coventry clerk died 27 July 1932 at Leamington Spa. Probate to Dorothy May Morton, widow. £7928 12s

EDIT - posted earlier on page 1

Does it have his marriage?
Cyril Evelyn Morton (27) Clerk in Holy Orders
Gender: Male
Marriage Age: 27
Record Type: Marriage
Birth Date: abt 1886
Marriage Date: 16 Apr 1913
Marriage Place: St Mary, Harrow, Harrow, England
Father: Evelyn Howard Morton - Clerk in Holy Orders
Spouse: Dorothy May Carlyon (34)
Register Type: Parish Register

He gave his address as 26 Rodway Road, Roehampton. Hers was The Vicarage, Harrow.
Service conducted by Evelyn Morton. Witnesses Alexander Keith Carlyon (brides father & JP), and what looks like Annie Morton.

There's also this, compiled by the same person:

http://paulfiddian.co.uk/descend.php?personID=I7106&tree=tree1

Unfortunately he hasn't included Cyril in that, nor in the document in the link I gave before.

The main focus is those members of the Fiddian family who became clergymen, so the Mortons only come into it because of Winifred's marriage.

Is it safe to continue?

Yes, I think it's safe to continue!

Thanks - Dorothy May Carylon & Cyril E Moreton don't appear to have had any children. None showing on FMP or Freebmd.

If its of any interest, according to a letter in Leamington Spa Courier 18 January 1946, Dorothy was still living at 2 Northumberland Road.
The letter was part of a discussion about shortening the length of Sermons to attract the younger person. Despite claiming not to be a member of any particular church, she was against the idea.
“….to be a Christian does cost a lot of effort. ……[unless there is] some sacrifice of our time in order to worship……[it] will not be of much value. “

What's the cryptic -"is it safe to continue"

GG - that's after DetEcTive's query about whether or not it was Evelyn Morton's son Cyril who died 1914, with Fiddians among the mourners.
