Biography
Born in Charleston, South Carolina,[4] Morphy was of Spanish and Irish ancestry. Morphy moved to Louisiana, and read law under Edward Livingston.[4] He served in the state legislature, and was also Attorney General of Louisiana.[4] Morphy married Louise Thérèse Félicité Thelcide Le Carpentier, the musically talented daughter of a prominent French Creole family. His home was an atmosphere of genteel civility and culture where chess and music were the typical highlights of a Sunday home gathering.[5] His son, Paul Morphy, is considered one of the greatest chess players of all time.[4]
