Timothy D. Morris (July 4, 1818 – April 26, 1876) was an American farmer, Republican politician, and Wisconsin pioneer.
He also served four years as sheriff of Racine County, and, in that capacity, played a significant role in the Joshua Glover affair in 1854.
[2] During his second year as sheriff, a significant controversy arose from attempts by federal authorities to enforce the Fugitive Slave Act in Racine County in the case of Joshua Glover.
Morris, however, responded by using his authority as sheriff to try to arrest Garland and his assistants—including federal agents—on charges of kidnapping and assault.
[5] He won the Fall general election and represented Racine County for two years in the Wisconsin Senate.
