21 November 2008 Researcher (Location): #055 - Judy Bender Moyna (Elkader, IA) #058 - Catherine Baugher (Virginia Beach, VA) #181 - M. Coogan Research: This is the family of John Coogan, a butter dealer from County Monaghan, Ireland. His children were born in the Castleblayney area of the county. His daughter, Catherine 'Emily', and his son Michael Coogan, emigrated to the US in 1888. Since there was only enough money for one of them to continue from New York, Michael stayed there to work and Catherine continued on to Clayton County, IA. Many of her descendants still live in Iowa to this day. Catherine returned to Ireland twice. Once she was there a year, staying with her mother and some of her siblings in Castleblayney and gave birth to her son, Michael. A second time she returned but only stayed overnight. ___________________________________________________________________ Catherine is a descendant of Catherine (Emily) Coogan Lane. Patrick Lane, Catherine's (Emily's) husband, had a sister named Katherine Lane. She was Judy's husband's great grandmother. M. Coogan is related to Michael Coogan, Catherine's brother. ************************ 1.
