DART As on each evening of the working week, people surge forward, climbing the steps to catch the Dart. The carriages are soon crowded, paper headlines prominently display our latest tragedy; briefcases open in the confined space, their owners lose themselves in the foolscap sheets. Others yawn or doze fitfully, heads lolling sideways as straight seats refuse to give comfort, knees rub against one's facing passenger. Suffocating in an airless carriage, as I reach upwards to open a window, passengers stare at me in silence. -- Mary Guckian, "The Road to Gowel," Swan Press/Dublin 2000

Died November 23, 1950 in Warwick, Rhode Island. Patrick DORGAN was the son of Patrick DORGAN (DARGAN). His mother's name is not known. Mary HARTNETT was the daughter of John HARTNETT and (?) FLYNN Patrick DORGAN emigrated to Ellis Island on October 28, 1869 from Queenstown (Cobh) onboard the Teutonic. He gave his age as 40 which would have him born in 1856! He gave his last Irish address as the townland of Ballylanders in the P.L.U. of Middleton in the civil parish of Ballintemple.

Nora: I guess we will never know their Irish background. My Hogan was born in South Carolina, an only son, and I guess there may be a possibility that your Thomas is a distant relative, since the Hogans were from Illinois, and Harvard is not too far from Chicago. Maybe someday we will find out. Good luck.

Marilyn, I'm even more far removed that you. My father's paternal cousin Elizabeth Fahey, married Thomas Hogan in 1923. They had one child, John Michael (b. April 1928). Elizabeth died in 1958. Don't know anything about the husband but the son died November 2000 in Harvard IL. Wrote to an address in Harvard but never received a response. Couldn't tell from where in Ireland the Hogans came because Thomas was born in Illinois.

Hi Dr Jim, Just wanted to say that I have a friend by that name....she is on vacation for the next almost two weeks but I will ask her upon her return. Maureen

Trying to find more information on my McCULLOUGH and McNALLY ancestors. James McCullough and Elizabeth McNally were both born in County Monaghan in 1826 according to family records and death certificates. Elizabeth was the daughter of Arthur McNally. We found a record that shows a James McCullough and wife Elizabeth arriving in Philadelphia on the Ship Superior in July, 1849. There is no information found about them for many years. They had a son born in February of 1863 in Joliet, Will Co. IL. Will Co. had no record when contacted several years ago. They had 2 daughters born in Kellogg, Jasper Co. IA in 1864 and 1866. According to the 1900 census Elizabeth stated she had given birth to 3 children and all 3 were living. The big mystery is where were they and what were they doing between 1849 and 1863???? We also cannot find information on the families in Ireland (James parents, siblings and Elizabeth mother, siblings - their marriage date, etc.) I have fairly good information on their son James and his famiy as he was my grandfather ! (he was in his late forties when my father was born). Daughter Mary Jane married an L. Stoll 26 September 1888 in Polk Co. IA - no other information except that she died in 1902 in Des Moines. Daughter Rose Anna married Philip Streck and they lived in Grinnell, Poweshiek Co. IA. Thank you for any help and suggestions. Elaine
