A “New” Portrait for a 230th Birthday!


March 5th marks the 230th birthday of Justice Robert C. Grier, who served on the Court from 1846 to 1870. Born in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, in 1794, Grier attended Dickinson College and practiced law privately until 1833, when he was appointed to the District Court of Allegheny County. In 1846, President James K. Polk appointed him to the Supreme Court. In 2023, descendants of Justice Grier donated this posthumous portrait, shared here for the first time.
