http://www.cooganresearchgroup.com/crg/index.htm 23 June 2022 Researcher (Location): #011 - Elizabeth Del Valle (Brooklyn, NY) Research: This is the family of Ellen Bridget Coogan. She was born in Ireland and emigrated to the United States in the mid Nineteenth Century. She settled in Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania, where her descendants still live today. This family has a confirmed connection with another Coogan family from Schuylkill County - that of Richard Coogan (Shenandoah). Around 1884, Martin Murphy (son of Michael Murphy and Ellen Bridget Coogan) married Bridget Coogan (daughter of Richard Coogan and Mary [ ]). It is also very likely that this family is related to a third group of Coogans from Schuylkill County - that of Patrick T. Coogan (Heckscherville). This link has yet to be established. _________________________________________________________________ Elizabeth is a descendant of Ellen Bridget Coogan. _________________________________________________________________ This family's information can be found at the following site(s): http://www.geocities.com/angelasmom/ _________________________________________________________________ ****************** 01.
