A genial old-time physician who did his first professional work more than half a century ago and for many years has lived retired at Clarksburg, Doctor Morgan is now in the eightieth year of his age, and his life has been one of signal usefulness and honor in his community. He is a native of Ross County, and has spent most of his active career within its limits.
As a native son he has been more than ordinarily interested and active in preserving the early history of this county. Many articles from the pen of Doctor Morgan have appeared in various publications and have served to enrich the historical literature of this section of Ohio. For many years he has been on of the leading advocates of the temperance cause. His influence and energies have gone to benefit his community in many directions. He cast his first vote in a presidential campaign when the whig party was still in existence. In the meantime he had attended the district school and the high school at Frankfort in Ross County, and began the study of medicine under Dr. William Latta at Frankfort. Doctor Morgan began the practice of medicine at Jasper in Pike County, Ohio, in 1863. For the preceding three years he had taught school. When General Morgan's Confederate raiders came through Pike county they invaded his home and office and appropriated practically all his possessions. He then moved to Pancoastburg in Fayette County, and was in active practice there until 1868. In 1863 he had attended his first course of lectures in the Medical College of Ohio at Cincinnati, and in 1868 returned to that institution where he was graduated M.D. in 1869. Following that he located in Clarksburg, soon had built up and extensive practice which kept him almost constantly riding and driving about the country. In 1900 Doctor Morgan retired from active practice.
