http://www.cooganresearchgroup.com/crg/index.htm 12 March 2011 Researcher (Location): CRG Sponsor (no links to a researcher yet) Research: This is the family of James Coogan. He was born in Ireland (we suspect he was from County Kilkenny, although he may also have lived in County Cork). James' son, Michael Coogan, emigrated to Canada in the mid Nineteenth Century. He settled in Quebec City (Ville de Quebec), where he and several of his children lived for many years. There is a chance that he moved to the United States around 1870, but by 1881 he was back in QC. One of James' grand-sons, William Coogan, moved to Brooklyn, NY, where he died in 1918. Another James' grand-sons, Thomas Clifford Coogan, moved to British Columbia. He eventually settled in Oregon. This family has also been found as COOGEN. 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.
