Hi Jean, Thanks for the reply. Zita Jean is a relative and we have communicated over phone and email. We are quite stumped on their locations but yesterday a member from RIPROVID stated that Felix was listed as Phillip in the 1850 census in RI this could be the big break we have been searching for. If I locate their origin, I will most definitely tell everyone on the list. George -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jean R.

Known names are Maggie Hannagan Hennessey, Anthony Hannagan, Mary Hannagan Hummel, Theresa L. Hannagan Kane and Alice Jane Hannagan Cain was my grandmother. All grew up in Champaign Co. Illinois area." There were no replies, but there is a Hannigan Forum there to post on. Is she a sister, cousin, aunt? May not apply to your particular family, but there were many Hannagan (var.) individuals who owned an acre or more of land in Co. Tyrone circa 1876. Any reason to believe your family was from Northern Ireland?
