Subj: Corrign Family Tree Information Date: 6/8/2003 3:46:02 PM Central Standard Time From: <A HREF="mailto:RCorri8411">RCorri8411</A> To: <A HREF="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</A> I have my Dad's Family Tree all the way back to 1800 in Ireland, but haven't been able to find my maternal grandfather, Joseph P. Corrigan's side further back than his parents and some information about his brother.s names and their wives.I am sure that there were quite a number of relatives in the Ottawa, Streator, Blackstone, Kinsman, Budd, Ransom, Odell or Sioux City, Iowa areas. It would also be nice to know the names of any of my great-grandfather's brothers or sisters, some of whom may have come to the United States and/or some that did ot (and their offspring) His parents were Thomas Corrigan, born in Loughlin Parish, Rosscommon, Ireland and married to Margaret Donahue, b. May 28, 1832 in Milltown Parish, Mayo, Ireland. I think that, for a time, they lived near Streator, with their 6 sons and no daughters. I uinderstand that one of the 6 sons was Thomas J. Corrigan born August 23, 1854 in Ottawa and married Mary Carey on March 22, 1879 in Kinsman and that Thomas passed away in September 1928 in Streator. I understand that they had : Thomas B, who lived near Streator and married Ella Freeborn (sp.) from Streator, on April 19, 1911 and that he passed away on March 5, 1952 in or near Streator. William , born January 6, 1887 in Ransom, Livingston County, and that he married Bee Connors (date unknown) and that he passed away on February 28, 1950 in or near Blackstone, Livingston County, Illinois. Francis, born April 26, 1891 and married to Paula Trainor in Streator on April 3, 1923 in Streator and that they lived in Streator at one time. I also have note that they had a daughter Margaret, born January 26, 1882 in Ransom, Livingston County, Illinois, who married Eugene Drinan in 1912. I believe that she passed away in November,1965 in or near Odell, Illinois. I also have a note of Mary, born July 21, 1883 in Ransom, who passed away November 24,1973 in Streator. ( I don't know if Mary had a husband or family.) I don't know the names of any of their offsprings. But it seems to me that I used to hear of Grandma and the aunts refer to Gene Drinan, who was apparently Margaret's husband. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------- John (Jack) Corrigan was born March 4, 1856 in or near Ottawa and died November 23, 1929 in or near Sioux City, Iowa. He was apparently buried there. I have found nothing about his being married or having children. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------------------------------- James J. Corrigan was born in or near Ottawa on January 3, 1862and married and passed away in Ottawa on January 22, 1931. I have found no record of him being married or having any children. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------- William J. Corrigan was born May 28, 1863 in Ottawa and married Mary Ann Brennan on November 28, 1888, in Dwight, Illinois. He apparently passed away in Sioux City, Iowa on November 28, 1949. I have found no record of where he and his wife are buried or if they had children. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------- Michael B. Corrigan is, I believe, the yougest of the brothers and was born in Ottawa on November 29, 1889 and married Emma Quinn (Date and Place Unknown) I understand that he passed away in Streator in 1936. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------- Except for our grandparents, I do not have any of the descendats of the other brothers and Thomas J. Corrigan and Mary Ann Carey. But I feel that someone else may have that information and have passed it on to you or their existing relatives in one of the areas or it might be a matter of public record in one of those areas. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------- I have been trying to work on this Family Tree for several years for these grandparents side, but this is as far back as I have gotten. I would appreciate any help that you or any of their existing relatives can give me. I understand that at least one of our grandfather's brothers and some of his family were farmers near Budd, Illinois in Livingston County. Would you have a local address in Sioux City, Iowa to write to an organization or for relatives of John (Jack) Corrigan's family and William J. Corrigan's Family Tree ? If you or anyone is interested, I have a professionaly made photgrapraph of all 6 brothers as relatively young men and the another professionaly made photo of them sitting in the same order (about 9 x 12 ) that seems to be taken abought 30 years later. I can mail copies. I would really appreciate your help in locating any of these people, for no other reason to complete more of the Family Tree.

Hi All I was sent this man's death certificate by mistake. If you are looking for this information please e-mail me. Hopefully you got my certificate for Ada Shaver. Thanks Sue K.

I am searching for the burial place of an ancestor who died between 1864 and 1870 in Lostant (Hope Township). Is there a listing somewhere of cemeteries for this area, or obituaries? Her name was Mary Jane McGaffin. I don't know her religion. Kathy

This for Verna----Are you looking for more Corrigans near Ransom ? As you can see, I got a response from Jim Kinally in Arkansas about M.J. Corrigan and Arthur Corrigan and their wives. It was just posted last night here. I would appreciate any information that yo get that will allow more follow-up. Best regards, Dick Corrigan Orland Park, Ill [email protected]

Hi Jim Kinally ! I don't recall getting an e-mail from you before, but I am sure that if you say you sent it, it went to the ILLASALL-L rootsweb.com , just as this one did. Now,can I pick your brain some more about the people from Ransom that we are appentlty both related to ? As you, no doubt, know there are a lot of Irish people who have kids that they name Michael and Joseph and Patrick and Josephine and James and Eileen. Would you have any e-mail addresses for people in the Ransom area that are related to the McIntyres or the Corrigans that may still be there ? Eileen McIntyre would be a few years younger than my mom, if Mom was still alive. Mom was born in Ottawa in 1912. How about M.J. Corrigan-----would that stand for Michael Joseph ? We have a cousin, who is much younger than M.J. would be with that name. Is Arthur Corrigan still with us? If not, do you know an e-mail address for any of his descendants ? I have not heard of the Mulvihill family referred to, but if Josephine was from the Ransom-Streator-Odell area she may also be related in some way to my mother's family-----incidentally, my mother's name was Josephine. Even if Josephine Mulvihill Corrigan was not related, except by marraige to M.J. there may be people from that family who have e-mail addresses that are doing or have done the Family Tree for others that are related. I would appreciate the e-mail addresses for any that you know of that might be related to any of us----this has become a really fascinating pasttime and I really get a kick out of it. If you would like, I can give the names of some other people that are related to our family that have reeeeeeealy done a lot of getting relations ' staerting all over the place. Thanks for your response, Dick Corrigan Orland Park, Illinois [email protected]

Can anyone tell me who is the caretaker for Allen Cemetery in Ransom? Thanks Verna Maleski [email protected]

Dick - I have written to you before but thought I would repeat what I know. My first cousin, three times removed was Eileen McIntyre who married Arthur Joseph Corrigan in 1917 in Ransom. His parents were M.J. Corrigan and Josephine Mulvihill. Sincerely, Jim Kinnally in Arkansas

Hi Dick, Have you checked US census records from 1860 onward to track the other family members? That would be a good place to start. As for your Roscommon info, Loughlyn or Loughglinn is the RC parish in Tibohine Parish, Roscommon. The church records for baptisms and marriages are available on LDS microfilm. You should be able to find records there, as well as in the records of Tithes and Aplotments from the 1820's, Griffith's land survey in the 1850's, the canceled land books up into the 20th century, and the 1901 and 1911 census records. All of those are available on LDS microfilm as well. You should be able to do the same searches for Mayo, but I'm not sure whether or not church records are available for your parish. It would be easy to find out though. Have you checked the Leitrim-Roscommon web site? By all means look at it: http://www.leitrim-roscommon.com/ Good luck finding those families!

Hei Viggo, Rhonda, Good to see you on the LaSalle list Viggo! You did get me started in LaSalle years ago with some information on my Schlanbusch family from Voss. I am a member now of the LaSalle Genealogy Guild and have family close that I send there for my research. If you do not have a contact in LaSalle and ever need anything, photocopy's or such just let me know. I will be more than happy to try to help you. Hi Ronda, have you tried the "Emigrants" records (register, ships list and such) at the Digitalarkivet database in Norway? I have had very good luck finding my families travels in the 1800's there. Some made several trips back and forth and have found a few at Ellis Island twice. If yours went through the port of Bergen you will have good chance of finding them in the records at the Digitalarkivet. There are a few tricks to help in searches of the records there, I have good luck there and have had help from Norway and cousins here in the US with this. If I can be of help just ask. Regards Al Askevold From: <[email protected]> > HI Viggo > > Thanks for answering but now how do i actually prove it. the marriage > certificate that ill be getting in a few days dosent have parents names on it. and > as far as i know the land records that ill be getting dont have anything > either.
