Sir George Lockwood Morris, 8th Baronet (29 January 1859 - 23 November 1947) was a Welsh industrialist and iron founder. He was also an international rugby union forward who won five caps for Wales. He played club rugby for Swansea, captaining the club through two seasons, and was the first Swansea player to represent Wales. ==Biography== George Lockwood Morris was born on 29 January 1859. He was the great-grandson in a junior branch of the family of Sir John Morris, 1st Baronet, the industrialist and founder of the suburb of Morriston in Swansea. Between 1878 and 1884 he was a noted rugby player. In 1889 he married Wilhelmina Cory of the Cory family at Swansea. They lived at Sketty, and had three children - Muriel, who died in her teens, Cedric Lockwood (1889-1982), who became a noted painter and plantsman, and Nancy (born 1893). In 1947, at the age of 88, Morris inherited Morris baronetcy from a distant cousin, three months before his death.〔Richard Morphet ''Cedric Morris'' The Tate Gallery 1984 ISBN 0-946590-06-0 p17〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「George Lockwood Morris」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
