He married Catherine Grosh, and in 1814, he built a two-story brick mansion known as \"Hopemont\" (today known as The Hunt-Morgan House) for him and his wife. Their son became the first mayor of Lexington. He died in 1849. He was buried in the family plot at the Lexington Cemetery. His grandson, John Hunt Morgan, was a famous Confederate general during the American Civil War of 1861-1865.
