• Lieutenant-Colonel Sir Charles Gould Morgan, 2nd Baronet (4 February 1760 – 5 December 1846), was a Welsh soldier and politician, the MP for Brecon (1787–1796) and later the County of Monmouth (1796–1831).
• Born to Sir Charles Morgan, 1st Baronet (originally Charles Gould) and Jane Morgan, he became a Captain in the Coldstream Guards. On retirement from the British Army to enable him to concentrate of the family estate, he became an MP for Brecon, and later the County of Monmouth.
• He married Mary Margaret Stoney in 1791, with whom he had eight children. He never remarried after her death in 1808.[1] In 1800, industrialist Samuel Homfray married his daughter Jane Morgan, and thus obtained a favorable lease of mineral land at Tredegar, where he established the Tredegar Ironworks.[2] Morgan was succeeded by his son, Charles Morgan, 1st Baron Tredegar.

• John Morgan (18 February 1742 – 27 June 1792) was a Welsh politician of the mid-to-late 18th century, the youngest son of Thomas Morgan and his wife, Jane.
• He entered the House of Commons in 1769 as Member of Parliament for Brecon, succeeding his brother Charles Morgan. In 1771, he accepted the Stewardship of the Manor of East Hendred in order to enter the by-election at Monmouthshire, replacing his late brother Thomas Morgan.[1] Unusually, given the immense Morgan influence in Brecknockshire and Monmouthshire, the election was contested, albeit unsuccessfully, by Valentine Morris.[2]
• He was exceedingly wealthy, and upon the death of his brother Charles in 1787, the entirety of the Tredegar Estate of the family devolved upon him. He died unmarried, and his estates passed to his brother-in-law Sir Charles Gould, who assumed the name of Morgan.[1]
