He represented Westbourne from 1888 to 1903 in the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba as a Liberal. He was born in Hull, Yorkshire, of Scottish descent, and was educated in Gloucester. After completing his education, Morton was employed at a bank in Plymouth.[1] In 1871, he came to Canada and settled on a farm in Gladstone, Manitoba. Morton married Mary Honora Cory in 1876. He served as secretary-treasurer for the Rural Municipality of Westbourne.[1] Morton was defeated when he ran for reelection to the Manitoba assembly in 1903.[2] He was also involved in the grain trade and later moved to Winnipeg. Morton died at home in Winnipeg at the age of 67.[3] His daughter Margaret married Robert Jacob, who also sat as a Liberal in the Manitoba assembly.[4] His son William also was a member of the assembly.[5] References1. ^{{cite book |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=9_wmAAAAMAAJ&pg=PA341 |pages=341–42 |title=The Canadian Parliamentary companion |year=1889 |last=Gemmill |first=J A |accessdate=2012-10-19}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Morton, Thomas L}}{{Manitoba-politician-stub}}2. ^{{cite web |url=https://www.gov.mb.ca/hansard/members/mla_bio_deceased.html#W0 |title=MLA Biographies - Deceased |work=Legislative Assembly of Manitoba |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20140330185239/http://www.gov.mb.ca/hansard/members/mla_bio_deceased.html#W0 |archivedate=2014-03-30 |df= }} 3. ^1 2 {{cite web |url=http://www.mhs.mb.ca/docs/people/morton_tl.shtml |title=Thomas Lewis Morton (1846-1914) |work=Memorable Manitobans |publisher=Manitoba Historical Society |accessdate=2012-10-19}} 4. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.mhs.mb.ca/docs/people/jacob_r.shtml |title=Robert Jacob (1879-1944) |work=Memorable Manitobans |publisher=Manitoba Historical Society |accessdate=2012-10-19}} 5. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.mhs.mb.ca/docs/people/morton_w.shtml |title=William Morton (1884-1958) |work=Memorable Manitobans |publisher=Manitoba Historical Society |accessdate=2012-10-19}} 4 : 1846 births|1914 deaths|Manitoba Liberal Party MLAs|Canadian farmers |
