Hello, My name is Marilyn Jurrens from Yankton SD. My grandparents were Dave and Alvira Garrigan. Both are now dead but lived originally in Sioux City Iowa then Hartington NE. My family still consists of several Garrigan uncles and cousins and of course my mother was one and has the family bible with her that shows much of their history. If you would like to e-mail back and forth for more information I would be glad to find out more and get together with you. My mom's name was Mary Jean Garrigan. She had three brothers James, John and Dennis and one sister Marge. I had a great- uncle named Joe Garrigan. We should see if they are one and the same or somehow connected. This could be very interesting. I receive e-mail at home at mjurrens@msn.com. Write me sometime and let's talk about our possible family connection. Thank you. ----- Original Message ----- From: Walda Cameron <camfam@frontiernet.net> To: <GARRIGAN-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, May 25, 2001 9:44 AM Subject: [GARRIGAN] intro + Pittsburgh Garrigans > Hi-- > > My name is Walda Cameron, my mother's name was Mary Mildred Dolores > Garrigan.
