Sir Walter Morgan (1821–1903) was a Welsh judge and the First Chief Justice of the Allahabad High Court. He also became the Chief justice of the Madras High Court from 1871 to 1879. Morgan was born in Llantrisant, Glamorgan, Wales, the son of Walter Morgan, and educated at King's College London. He entered the Middle Temple, and was called to the Bar 22 November 1844. His early years in the profession were uninspiring, and his progress slow, leading him to consider other employment, until he conceived of going to India.
