It was reported that Robert Morrison was a judge at the Franklin court in Pennsylvania. So far, the Pennsylvania Historical Society has found a Robert Morrison as a Court Crier for Franklin. I'm still paying for more research and hopefully soon we'll have more info. Also too, there are reports of Robert Morrison being born in Ayres Scotland, and another born in Derry, Ireland and both being married to Elizabeth Culbertson. Find a grave has him as born in Derry, Ireland. SAR has him as born in Ayres, Scotland.

I'm waiting on research from the Historical society of Pennsylvania. I can't find good records. He was a judge so he should be listed somewhere. It's been a couple months ago and I've yet to hear back on the findings.
