In 1873, Morgan married Mary Devereux Clarke (1854-1931) of New Bern, N.C. The couple had two children. Their daughter, Bayard Morgan Wootten (1875-1959), was also a successful photographer and studio operator. Morgan retired from photography in 1878-1879 and moved to the San Diego area of California. He died soon after moving to California in 1880.
