http://www.cooganresearchgroup.com/crg/index.htm 26 December 2023 Researcher (Location): #101 - Kelly L. Coogan #311 - Daniel Gentleman (IL) Research: This is the family of Martin Coogan. He was born in [Northern] Ireland and lived in Belfast (County Antrim/Down). Later, he moved to Holywood, County Down. There is a chance that this family is connected with the family of James Coogan (who also lived in Holywood). Additional research is required to verify this link. Martin's son, John J. Coogan, emigrated to the United States in the late Nineteenth Century and settled with his family in Chicago (Cook County), Illinois. This family has also been found as COGAN and KRUGAN. _________________________________________________________________ Kelly is a descendant of John J. Coogan through his son, James J. Coogan. Daniel is a descendant of John J. Coogan through his daughter, Charlotte C. Coogan. ******************** 01. [ male01 ] COOGAN Children of [ male01 ] Coogan: 02.
