Luther Morgan died near Nacogdoches, Texas in a hunting accident.
He married Anna Cameron Dold in 1798.

Davey Crockett's visit in 1813 "After his recovery Colonel Crockett and his party journeyed through Stony Lonesome. From Elyton they went along the Huntsville Road as far as Mt. Pinson and crossed the river at Cook's Ferry. Soon they arrive at the sulphur springs to rest a few days as the guests of Luther Morgan, whose establishment consisted of a wigwam covered with bark near two large birch trees, to one of which a large pet bear was chained. Crockett returned to Tennessee via Bear Meat Cabin and Huntsville."

from Brown and Nabers (Sketches of Alabama) who believe Morgan's wigwam was situated at present day Blount Springs.
