Research:

This is the family of Owen Coogan, a weaver.  He was born in 
Ireland and probably lived in County Monaghan.

Owen had at least one son, Philip Coogan.  He lived in County 
Monaghan in 1860 and had several children there.

Owen's grandson was Owen Coogan, a 20 year career soldier in the 
British Army.  He later retired to County Offaly (Kings County).  
It is said that he could write beautifully and also composed 
music.
