The closest I have is:

William Morris, born 1791 in Leuchars, son of William Morris and Elizabeth Simpson.  I don't know who he married.

Concerning your Morris family from Dunino,  I too have a Morris living in Dunino in that time frame.

ANDREW MORRIS and JANE ASHBY were married in Dunino in 1829.  All of their children were born there.  Andrew had a brother named William.  Andrew's parents were:  WILLIAM MORRIS and ELIZABETH SIMPSON.

Any connection?
