Morgan Earp.

Morgan Earp (1851 - Tombstone, 18 de marzo de 1882). Tercer hijo de Nicholas Porter Earp y hermano de Wyatt Earp y Virgil Earp.

Morgan acompañó a su hermano Wyatt a Wichita en 1877. Más adelante se mudó a Dodge City, ocupando el cargo de policía en el condado de Ford. En la primavera de 1879 la ciudad vive su declive como ciudad ganadera y Morgan se traslada a Butte (Montana) siguiendo el rastro de los buscadores de oro. En 1880 se une a sus hermanos y se dirige a Tombstone.

Tras el Tiroteo en el O.K. Corral, Morgan es juzgado junto a sus hermanos Wyatt y Virgil y exculpado en 1881.

El 18 de marzo de 1882 Morgan es asesinado mientras juega al billar con su hermano Wyatt.
