http://www.cooganresearchgroup.com/crg/index.htm 05 July 2014 Researcher (Location): #327 - Gary Rebholz (Milwaukee, WI) Research: This is the family of Michael Coogan. He was born in Ireland and lived in County Kildare. Michael's son, Christopher Coogan, was living in Castledermot [Castle Dermot], Kildare, when his children were born. He later emigrated to the United States (late Nineteenth Century) and reached Chicago (Cook County), Illinois, before he died. At least four of Christopher's children also emigrated to the United States. They settled near each other in Chicago. The relationships in this line appear to be well founded, but there are some age discrepancies. Check back for changes. This family has also been found as COOGIN. _________________________________________________________________ Gary is a researcher for this family. ************************ 01.
