Nope, he was an American surgeon.

The sequence was first described by Lewis Durlacher in 1845. The term Morton's neuralgia was introduced by Ph. Lewin in 1876. Not to be confused with Morton's syndrome, which is another entity named for the American orthopaedic surgeon Dudley J. Morton (1884-1960). Thomas George Morton's observations were confirmed by his son, Thomas S. K. Morton, in 1892.
