There have been four baronetcies created for persons with the surname Morris, all in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. As of 2014 two of the creations are extant. The Morris Baronetcy, of Clasemont in the County of Glamorgan, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 12 May 1806 for the copper and coal magnate, John Morris. The 1st baronet had founded Morriston, the industrial suburb of Swansea, which was overlooked by the family seat at Clasemont. This residence was later knocked down and the stones were incorporated into a new family house at Sketty Park. Various lines died out, and the baronetcy eventually came to the 8th baronet, George Lockwood Morris, who succeeded at the age of 88, three months before his death. The 8th baronet had been a local industrialist and a Welsh international rugby player. The ninth baronet, the 8th baronet's son, was the painter and horticulturalist Cedric Morris.〔Richard Morphet ''Cedric Morris'' Tate gallery 1984 ISBN 0-946590-06-0〕 As of 28 February 2014 the present Baronet has not successfully proven his succession and is therefore not on the Official Roll of the Baronetage, with the baronetcy considered dormant since 1982.〔http://www.baronetage.org/official-roll-of-the-baronets/〕 The Morris Baronetcy, of Spiddal in the County of Galway, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 14 September 1885.

The Morris Baronetcy, of Cavendish Square, in the Metropolitan Borough of Marylebone, London, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 24 July 1909 for Henry Morris. The title became extinct on his death in 1926. The Morris Baronetcy'', of Nuffield in the County of Oxford, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 27 March 1929. For more information on this creation, see the Viscount Nuffield. ==Morris baronets, of Clasemont (1806)== *Sir John Morris, 1st Baronet (1745–1819) *Sir John Morris, 2nd Baronet (1775–1855) *Sir John Armine Morris, 3rd Baronet (1813–1893) *Sir Robert Armine Morris, 4th Baronet (1848–1927) *Sir Tankerville Robert Armine Morris, 5th Baronet (1892–1937) *Sir George Cecil Morris, 6th Baronet (1852–1940) *Sir Herbert Edward Morris, 7th Baronet (1884–1947) *Sir George Lockwood Morris, 8th Baronet (1859–1947) *Sir Cedric Lockwood Morris, 9th Baronet (1889–1982) *Sir Robert Byng Morris, 10th Baronet (1913–1999) *Sir Allan Lindsay Morris, 11th Baronet (b.1961) The heir apparent is the present holder's son Sennen John Morris (born 1995). 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「Morris baronets」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
