Dear Harriette: Where in Ireland did your FAGANS live? My FAGAN families were from Co Westmeath. Many thanks, Betty Lou Garcia Dear Bonita, I have only been able to trace my Phagan/Fagan ancestors back to 1750's, Augusta Co., Virginia. Phillip Phagan/Fagan was the earliest ancestor I have been able to locate. He and his family got land grants from the king of England as they had left Ireland to escape persecution by the Catholics. Their land grants were in S. C. Hope this helps. Harriette Fagan Timmerman ============================== Search the US Census Collection. Over 140 million records added in the last 12 months.
