Timeline
Francis John Morse, the second son of Sir George Henry Morse, a brewer and Lord Mayor of Norwich from 1922 to 1923, was from a junior branch of the landed gentry Morse family of Lound, Suffolk.
Morse was educated at West Downs School and Winchester College.
Sir Christopher Jeremy Morse KCMG (10 December 1928 – 4 February 2016) was an English banker, cruciverbalist and chess composer who was Chancellor of the University of Bristol from 1989 to 2003, and was chairman of Lloyds Bank.
Morse was born in Kensington, London, in 1928, the only son (he had a younger sister) of Francis John Morse, of Lenwade House, Norwich, and his wife, Kinbarra, daughter of barrister Edward Armfield-Marrow.
In 1955, Morse married Belinda Marianne Mills, the daughter of Lt-Colonel Robert Breynton Yarnton Mills, OBE, MC, of the landed gentry Mills family of Sudgrove; they had three sons and two daughters (one of whom died from leukaemia at the age of four).
He went on to attend New College, Oxford, after completing two years of national service with the 60th Rifles in Mandatory Palestine.
He served on the Board of the Bank of England as an executive director from 1965 to 1972, and as a non-executive from 1993 to 1997.
He was also the first Chairman of the International Monetary Fund's Committee of Twenty (C20).
In the 1975 New Year Honours, he was appointed Knight Commander of the Order of St Michael and St George (KCMG) "for services to the reform of the international monetary system".
He had a keen interest in cryptic crosswords and was a skilful writer of clues.
A career banker, Morse began with Williams and Glyn's Bank and went on to be chairman of Lloyds Bank between 1977 and 1993; assuming the role at age 48, he was the youngest head of a clearing bank.
In 2006 Morse was awarded the title of World Federation for Chess Composition Honorary Master.
He was an honorary fellow of New College, Oxford, and of All Souls College, Oxford.
His record of success in the clue-writing competitions of Ximenes and Azed was such that Azed's December 2008 Competition puzzle was dedicated to the occasion of his eightieth birthday.
He had puzzles published under the pseudonym "Esrom" (his surname in reverse).
In addition to crosswords, Morse had an interest in other types of word puzzles, and was a frequent contributor to Word Ways: The Journal of Recreational Linguistics.
He was also a chess writer and wrote a book called Chess Problems: Tasks and Records.
Colin Dexter's fictional detective, Inspector Morse, was named after him.
Morse died from complications of jaw cancer at Royal Trinity Hospice in London on 4 February 2016, at the age of 87.
