J. Trevor Morgan (born 27 December 1923 at Regina, Saskatchewan) was a Progressive Conservative party member of the Canadian House of Commons. He was a barrister and lawyer by career.

In 1954, Morgan became a councillor for Port Dalhousie, Ontario, then became that municipality's Reeve from 1956 to 1960. Between 1962 and 1968, he was an Alderman in St. Catharines, then between 1969 and 1972 was a councillor for the Niagara Region.

He was first elected at the St. Catharines riding in the 1972 general election. After serving his term in the 29th Canadian Parliament, Morgan was defeated at St. Catharines by Gilbert Parent of the Liberal party in the 1974 federal election.

Having only 3 per cent of normal vision, Morgan required the use of a guide dog for his Parliamentary duties. He developed degenerative eye disase at age 13, and registered with CNIB by age 20, yet attended Queen's University and Osgoode Hall Law School.
