    Notes 
    • It appears that it was Rueben Morgan, Sr, and not this, his namesake son, who married Perthena Bell, the widow of Joseph Williams.

      Rueben Morgan, Jr, who is listed as between the ages of 20-30, was found on the 1830 Decatur County, Georgia census. He was listed as single, with no children in his home. This 1830 listing had Ruebin Morgan Sr, Rueben Morgan Jr, Duncan Bell, Duncan Morgan, and Malakier Kelly listed consecutively.

      Rueben was not listed in the 1840 census index.

      A 30 year old Reuben Morgan, born in North Carolina, was living in the home of James and Sarah Hodges, and working as a laborer at the time of the 1850 Lowndes County, Georgia Census. This might be the same person as Rueben Morgan, Jr, with his age incorrectly estimated. Not located on the 1860 or subsequent census indexes.
