http://www.cooganresearchgroup.com/crg/index.htm 16 March 2014 Researcher (Location): #240 - Bill Hardie (Jacksonville, FL) Research: This is the family of William [Z.] Coogan. He was born in Ireland and probably lived in County Laois / Leix / Queens. William emigrated to New York City in the early Nineteenth Century. After nearly a decade, he moved to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. William's oldest son (and namesake) enlisted in the same regiment as his father (69th Pennsylvania Volunteers) at the beginning of the US Civil War. After about a year of service, the elder William was discharged due to battle wounds. The younger William rose to the rank of First Sergeant of Company C but later died of wounds sustained during the Battle of Gettysburg (1863). One of William's children, Henry Coogan, married a woman named 'Pink' Lyons, who was black but probably of light complexion. Their children are found in public records classified variously as negro, colored, black or mulatto. Another son of William's, Richard Coogan, moved to nearby Montgomery County. His family lived in the Bryn Mawr area for the next century. A branch of this line now lives in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. This group of COOGANs could be connected with another family from New York and Philadelphia. Changes to the family outline will be required before the tree is completed. This family has also been found as COOGIN. _________________________________________________________________ Bill is a descendant of William [Z.] Coogan through his son, Richard Coogan. ************************** 01.
