Bryant Morton proved to be a leader in matters of the church. He belonged to the Congregational Church and went with a group who decided to form another church. Later on he became a Free-Will Baptist. His dealings in real estate made him well-to-do and he became a representative for the town of Gorham in many matters both local and governmental. He maintained his standing among the men who defended their lands in all towns around Portland, Falmouth, Standish, North Yarmouth and Windham. He became a Captain of the Seacoast Guards and was in charge of the defense of Fort Hancock.
He held an Innkeeper's License in Gorham in 1764, along with Samuel Whitmore in 1771, Ebenezer Hall - 1774, Jonathan Elwell - 1776 and Caleb Chase - 1777. Bryant also was licensed as a retailer of Tea, Coffee and Liquors with others. Bryant Morton married Lucy Chamberlain of Cape Elizabeth in 1771 after the death of Thankful Morton. Lucy was the widow of Aaron Chamberlain and the mother of nine children. It was her mother, who allowed the land-use from her husband's estate, upon which Fort Hancock was built. At the time of this marriage, Bryant divided up his own estate among his children, providing well for them. After marriage, he moved into the Chamberlain place where he lived out the rest of his life.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On December 31, 1774 the town of Gorham formed a committee consisting of Captain Bryant Morton and Messrs. Josiah Davis, Wentworth Stuart, James Gilkey and Caleb Chase to see that the town complied with the Continental Congress' "non-importation, non-consumption, and non-exportation" agreement of September 5, 1774. At the same meeting Captain Bryant Morton was chosen as a delegate to join the Provincial Congress, when the Committee of Correspondence should think it expedient. For this service he was to be allowed five shillings per day while gone to the said Congress.
In 1775 Gorham had about two hundred and sixty-four able bodied men in town of all ages over 16. Bryant Morton is listed as a Representative at the General Court of Massachusetts in 1775 and in 1777. In 1775 he was a delegate to the Provincial Congress. Members of the local militia included Thomas Morton and David Morton of Gorham. In 1771 at the time of his second marriage to Lucy White Chamberlain, widow of Aaron Chamberlain, Bryant Morton (1st) divided all his assets among the children of his first marriage and went to live with his 2nd wife on the other side of Gorham, where they raised two more children. His old home went to son, Briant 2nd who kept it until 1791 and then sold it to Humphrey Hanscom making his own home with Love Frost and children in Berwick. In the early 1800's Briant 2nd moved to Jackson, Maine.
