http://www.cooganresearchgroup.com/crg/index.htm 08 June 2014 Researcher (Location): #014 - Brian Gleeson (Melbourne, Victoria, Australia) Research: This is the family of Michael Coogan of County Kilkenny, Ireland. He lived in Uskerty (Moneenroe), near Castlecomer. Michael's grand-son, Richard P. Coogan, emigrated to the United States in the early Twentieth Century and settled in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Some of his descendants still live in that area today. There is a chance that this family is connected to another group from Moneenroe that later moved to the United States and settled in Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania. Most members of this group remained in Ireland. _________________________________________________________________ Brian is a cousin of this Coogan family - through the Butler family of Ellen, wife of Michael. Brian's side moved to Australia in the 1840s. _________________________________________________________________ Brian's family history is displayed at the following site (s): http://www.ballaratgenealogy.org.au/art/gleeson/gleeson.htm ************************ 01.
