He was born in Ireland. Patrick's sons, Simon Coogan and Richard Coogan, both lived in County Kildare - probably near the townland of Rathangan. Both sons emigrated to the United States in the late Nineteenth Century and settled in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Later descendants spread into adjacent areas of New Jersey. This group has also been found as COUGAN. We are currently looking for someone to link with this family and to take over the search! ************************** 01.
