Born in New York, Morris was educated by French [[Huguenots]] and graduated from King's College (now [[Columbia University]]).  He was once defeated in an election because he was suspected of being pro-British in the 1770s.  Morris helped finance the [[Revolutionary War]], however, and he was an advocate for a strong general government afterwards, including election of a [[U.S. President|president for life]].  An [[Episcopalian]], Morris had a deep faith in God and felt that He intervenes in the world.
