Joseph William Morgan (1898 – 19 September 1962) was a politician from Northern Ireland.

Morgan ran a drapers' shop, but was also a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society. He became active in the Ulster Unionist Party (UUP) and was elected at the 1953 Northern Ireland general election, representing Belfast Cromac.
