http://www.cooganresearchgroup.com/crg/index.htm 31 July 2021 Researcher (Location): #074 - Clive Vincent Coogan (Melbourne, Victoria, Australia) #414 - Alan Coogan Research: This is the family of Michael Coogan. He was born in Ireland and lived in County Kilkenny. Michael's son, Patrick Coogan, emigrated to Australia in the mid Nineteenth Century and settled in the vicinity of Melbourne, Victoria. It is likely that he had an older brother, Thomas Coogan, who lived near him. Both men had sons named Michael, complicating the framework of relationships in this group. Check back for updates! The family was connected with Geelong and Lara, where some descendants still live today. One descendant of this group, Nicholas Coogan, moved to Queensland. There is probably connection between this family and the other Coogan families from the area near Uskerty. _________________________________________________________________ Clive and Alan are descendants of Michael Coogan. ******************* 01.
