http://www.cooganresearchgroup.com/crg/index.htm 11 October 2010 Researcher (Location): CRG Sponsor (no links to a researcher yet) Research: This is the family of Michael Coogan. He was born in Ireland. Michael's son, Murtagh Coogan, emigrated to the United States in the late Nineteenth Century and settled in Newark (Essex County), New Jersey. The 1900 US Census stated that Murtagh's wife had eight children but that none were still living. If this is true, the family obviously knew much sorrow. We are currently looking for someone to link with this family and to take over the search! ******************** 1. [ male1 ] COOGAN Children of [ male1 ] Coogan: 2.
