Please contact us if you're a descendant of Thomas & Anastasia (Walsh) Halligan who arrived in Peoria early 1850's from County Kilkenny (thru New Orleans). Other descendents besides Halligans are Carrigans, Scanlons, Reed/Reid, Dutton, Matthews, Walsh, Murphy (family of Myles), Grants (Colorado), Zemans, Mangans, Stewarts (of St. Louis & Ste. Genevieve, MO.) It will be a lot of fun! Thanks, Genny Gibbs
