Research Notes
- Johnson1 confirms only 6 children: John, Calvin, Kitty, Richard, Charlton, and Henrietta.
- The 1850 census confirms 2 more children: Thomas and Francis, who were 10 and 8 when their father died, which might be the reason Johnson doesn't include them in the list of children reared.
- The FamilySearch Family Tree includes 3 other children who died in infancy (and thus would not have been included in Johnson's list of children reared). There are no sources to support their inclusion in the family. However, they fill a 7-year gap in births between known children:

... Calvin Cogswell Morgan was born in Charlottesville, Albemarle county, Virginia, December 16, 1801. Attending the Montgomery Bell Academy at Nashville, he received a liberal education, and became noted as a geologist. He spent a few years of his earlier life in Lexington, Kentucky, and was afterwards for a time engaged in the mercantile business at Blountsville, Alabama. Returning to Kentucky, he bought land in Fayette county, and for a number of years was a successful tiller of the soil. His last years, however, were spent in the city of Lexington where his death occurred May 12, 1854. He married Henrietta Hunt, a daughter of John Wesley and Catherine (Grosh) Hunt, and sister of the late Hon. Charlton Hunt, of whom a brief biographical sketch may be found on another page of this volume. She survived him nearly a half century, passing away September 7, 1891.
Mr. and Mrs. Calvin C. Morgan reared six children, namely:
- John H., the noted Confederate General ;
- Calvin Cogswell, Jr. ;
- Kittie G., who married her first cousin, Calvin M. McClung, and married second Lieutenant General A.P. Hill, who won fame as an officer in the Confederate Army ;
- Richard C., the special subject of this brief personal record ;
- Charlton H. ; and
- Henrietta, who became the wife of General Basil Duke. ...
