I am trying to trace two lines. The first is Rhody Hogan and Alice Cummings who came to NY from Tipperary (the Hogans were from Borrisokane). Rhody's parents were James Hogan and Ann Carroll. Alice's parents were John Cummings and Catherine Dwyer. John Cummings parents were Thomas Cummings and Alice Whalen Catherine Dwyers parents were Michael Dwyer and Johanna Cummings The second line is that of Patrick and Catherine Kennedy James Hogan m.
