Charles Henry Morgan (22 December 1932 — 22 August 2014) was a Welsh international rugby union player.

Born in Carmarthen, Morgan was a product of Carmarthen Athletic RFC and also played for Llanelli.

Morgan gained his two Wales caps as a prop for their final two fixtures of the 1957 Five Nations. Wales had lost their previous two matches and Morgan was called up to replace Courtenay Meredith in the front-row. He appeared against Ireland in Cardiff and France in Paris, both as part of winning teams.
