Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
From engaging in trysts at the Louvre, to losing a leg in an adultery-driven accident, to vehemently opposing slavery, Gouverneur Morris is arguably one of the most fascinating figures in history. Bronx born, Gouverneur Morris was one of the founding fathers, but his personal life is one wild ride. Buckle up

His end was wierd, wish he had seen a proper doctor instead of treating himself. I presume people were morally weak in those times. Everyone had numerous affairs while being married. Anyhow he is a great figure in American history. May his soul rest in peace.

Not sure the antislavery stance balanced out the crazy philandering, but it was pretty impressive for the time. The NYC layout is high on the list, too. As a native of the Borough, the Bronx connection is pretty amusing. Weird history, indeed!

Morrison, NJ is named after him & there a a very nice hotel called The Gouverneur Morris, The Gouverneur hotel for short. I stayed there about 10 years ago after missing the train back home to Manhattan.

I read about him as a child. It was a few years before my 7th grade history teacher mentioned him again and explained that he was not actually a governor. Before that, I was pretty confused. Lol

Did Morris know what's made out of wood, shaped like a wine glass, has a wooden stem hanging from it, and a wheel attached to the end of the stem? The answer is a roller skate for a pirate.

I'm glad that he was against slavery. I often wonder what our country would have looked like if slavery had been abolished by our Founding Father's.
