http://www.cooganresearchgroup.com/crg/index.htm 20 February 2009 Researcher (Location): CRG Sponsor (no links to a researcher yet) Research: This is a very old family of Coogans from County Wigton (AKA Wigtownshire), Scotland, United Kingdom. They were living there as early as the beginning of the Sixteenth Century. It is likely that the family had connections with Ireland before this. One descendant of this family appears to have actually moved to Ireland in the late Sixteenth or early Seventeenth Century, probably settling in County Meath. This family has been found as COOGIN. We are currently looking for someone to link with this family and to take over the search! ******************* 1.
