I already have a good deal of information, but I am looking to fill in the gaps. Dennis Ryan, son of Patrick E. and Catherine (Dwyer), and brother to Margaret, Johanna, and Nanno, married Elizabeth Hannegan/Hannegon and had the following children: Eva (Michael O'Donnell), Catherine, Patrick (Elizabeth Kurohl or Page), Addison, Mary (John Fusselman), Margaret (Thomas Daly), Ida (Walter Evans), Elizabeth (Sterling Frazier), John, Marthy, Robert, Andrew (Mamey Guinn), and Annie. Dennis's mother Catherine remarried to another Ryan (unrelated) and had the following children: Timothy (Cora Fusselman), Hannah (?? Moberly), Pat, and Jack/John. Timothy Ryan had the following children: Bessie (Dan Goggin), Marie (Berne Riggin), Blanch, and Carl. Dennis Ryan was supposed to have had a 1200 acre farm about 5 1/2 miles east of Milan. He and Ike Guinn were supposed to have donated the land for St. Mary's Church and Cemetary. The first mass was held in Dennis's home before the church was built. Any help would be appreciated.
