Mrs. Morgan was born in Harrogate, England to Mildred and Eric Slee on January 14th, 1941. Her brother, Richard Melvyn Slee, preceded her in death.

Mrs. Morgan grew up in Harrogate, England and attended the Harrogate Grammar School followed by the Harrogate College of Arts. She worked for Imperial Chemical Industries, where she met her beloved husband, David Jefferies Morgan. They started a family and spent a year living in Germany before returning to the UK.
