Morrad (surname)

Has anyone come across this name in any part of the UK apart from Lincolnshire and Yorkshire BEFORE 1720?

I have just had a quick look on findmypast at 1650 +- 50 years. There are no Morrads at all, but with 'variants', there are pockets of Morra, Morram, Morret(t) etc etc around the country.

I have a photocopy of the marriage of Susanna Morrad from St Peters Barton On Humber 29th January 1767, she married William Jackson, my 5x great grandfather. I've found a hannah Morrad on the 1841 census in Lincolnshire living with Susanna's daughter in law's family. I just can't find any other Morrads in the 1700s

Using Genesreunited' search of other trees i have found alot of Morrods in East Yorkshire and Kingston Upon Hull on the 1700s, the parish register entry definately says Morrad but I think I'll have to go with Morrod as the more familiar spelling locally but there are alot of Morrads in Kent so too far away. thanks x
