A grandson, Stephen Morgan (perhaps this chap http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Donegal/Convoy/Mullaghfin/1199092/), was present at death and signed George's death certificate, which can be viewed in the civil records section at www.irishgenealogy.ie

A Mary Morgan died in the same district in 1879, aged 54, so potentially had been George's wife. Unfortunately, that record is not yet available to view on irishgenealogy.
