William Morgan (of Tredegar, younger)
William Morgan (28 March 1725 โ 16 July 1763) was a Welsh politician of the mid-18th century.
He was the eldest son of
Member of Parliament for Monmouthshire, and was Bailiff of Brecon in 1749. He continued to represent Monmouthshire until his death in 1763.[1]
William died unmarried, and as all his siblings had predeceased him, Tredegar was inherited by his uncle Thomas Morgan.[2] This led to a legal battle between Thomas and Lady Rachel over control of the estate.[3]
