      * This Robert Morris, who was not related to the Morrises of Morrisiana, was the most successful merchant-banker in America during the period following the Revolutionary War; but he eventually failed, brought down by large scale real estate speculations and over-extension of his credit, which he also used to raise funds for the Government. Robert Morris spent several years in debtors prison at the end of his life.
