George Cadogan Morgan was a nephew of Richard Price and a dissenting minister who taught Godwin at Hoxton. His brother, William, also appears in the diary.
G. Morgan appears in 1789. Godwin's 1796 Diary records meeting Morgan with Kippis, Rees and others in 1773 - when he enters the Hoxton Academy where George Cadogan Morgan was teaching. This 1789 reference is in association with Price and the Revolutionists and is probably George Cadogan Morgan (see DNB - he was a nephew of Richard Price). The same pattern is there in 1791. It is possible that Godwin reads Morgan's pamphlet An address to the Jacobine and other patriotic societies: urging the establishment of a republican form of government in February 1796, since he cites 45 pages, and does not return to the text - and that was approximately the length of Morgan's pamphlet. G C Morgan dies in November 1798 but there is no mention of his death in the Diary, and no change in the pattern of recording Morgans.
William Morgan was a nephew of Richard Price and was a renowned host of radical figures. His brother, George Cadogan Morgan, also appears in the diary. The first W Morgan appears in 1793 - this might be G C Morgan's brother, also radically inclined, and an actuary who worked with (his uncle) Richard Price - see DNB. It seems probable that Godwin knew them both - but it is unclear what proportion of 'Morgan' entries the brothers account for. W Morgan's eldest son, also William, was also an actuary , working from at least 1817, although he died aged 28 in 1819. He was succeeded by his youngest brother Arthur. Morgan actuary has been coded as W Morgan; as have entries for W Morgan. In addition, there are a close set of entries in 1818 that begin with W Morgan and continue as Morgan, which occur while Godwin is writing Of Population where it seems likely that Godwin is consulting him on the statistics. All instances of G Morgan have been identified as George Cadogan Morgan as well as one instance of Morgan. All instances of 'Morgans' in the 1790s have been identified as either William and George Cadogan.
George Cadogan Morgan went on a tour in France in 1789 with Edward Rigby, Olyet Woodhouse and Samuel Boddington
