Hi, this is very interesting, if you haven't already seen it, also states that it was "Helen" who married Robert Morrow. (Page 6)

Also gives details of children's dob etc on pages 14/15

That's an absolutely fascinating book. It would be worth reading it all as other Morrows are mentioned in the Diary.

As this is your family, you could print it all off to pass on to descendants.
