Biographical History
Phineas Pemberton Morris, an attorney, son of James Pemberton and Rosa Gardiner Morris, descended from old Philadelphia families. He was named for one of his ancestors, Phineas Pemberton, who came to Pennsylvania in the 1680s, and settled near Bristol, Bucks County, naming his property Bolton Farm. Pemberton's great-granddaughter Mary Pemberton married Anthony Morris (1766-1860), a Philadelphia lawyer, merchant, and member of a distinguished family, in 1790. Their son James Pemberton Morris inherited Bolton Farm, and he left the property to his son Phineas Pemberton Morris. Phineas received a degree from Georgetown College, was admitted to the bar in 1840, taught law at the University of Pennsylvania, and wrote law books. He died childless in 1888.
