Morgan Morgans (engineer)

Morgan Morgans (1814–1888) was a civil engineer particularly involved with mining. Morgans was born in Llanddeusant, Carmarthenshire in either 1814 or 1816. He worked in connection with Ebbw Vale Ironworks from about 1840. The 1851 Census of Wales shows him (wrongly recorded as Morgan Morgan) living in Black Vein Colliery with his wife and children then born, employed as "Coal Agent". By 1855 he had risen to colliery manager. He had joined the South Wales Institute of Engineers when it was founded in 1857, delivering a "most valuable account of the mines and their ores" in 1867.
