Sir Charles Morrison, 1st Baronet

Sir Charles Morrison, 1st Baronet (18 April 1587 – 20 August 1628) (also Moryson) of Cashiobury in Watford, Hertfordshire, was an English politician who sat in the House of Commons at various times between 1621 and 1628.

He was made Knight of the Bath (KB) in 1603 at the English coronation of King James I and was created a baronet on 29 June 1611.

She survived him and remarried (as his second wife) to Sir John Cooper, 1st Baronet of Rockbourne, Hampshire.

The monument features reclining effigies of Sir Charles and his wife Mary sculpted in marble.

[7] Sir Charles left no surviving sons and thus the Morrison baronetcy became extinct on his death.
