Do we know who Suzanna Morton is?

Susannah was a Laughland, and she did marry a William Morton. She has been conflated into this Morton line repeatedly. I blame alot of this bad genealogy on Ancestry.

Just because I have a pro doesn't mean I know how to use it yet. And besides, If I came in and did everything myself, then I'm cheating you of having all this fun with me. After all, what are cousins for!?
