Additional Comments:
S.H. Morton went into the turpentine distilling business with Jesse Wilder, 
his wife's brother.  The business later became the "Morton and Hall Company" 
and after the death of S.H. Morton, his son, George Lee Morton took over the 
business.  The business name was changed to the "Geo. L. Morton Co".  This 
company is documented in the "Wilmington Up to Date" pamphlet published in 
1902 and currently available online.
