Searching for information about Patrick RONAN and his wife Catherine McMORROW (Murray) Ronan. Patrick born in Ireland about 1830, Catherine born in Ireland about 1834. Married in Clark Co., Ohio in 1857, lived in Shelby Co., Ohio in 1860, then Allamakee County, Iowa by 1870 and Howard County, Iowa in 1880l. This couple had the following children: James b. 1862, Patrick b 1864, John b. 1866, Katie b 1869, Mary b. 1871, Anna b. 1873, Lizzie b. 1876, Maggie b. 1878, and Alice b. 1858 and married Patrick McGourty in 1880 in Howard County, Iowa. I think Catherine's fathers name was Pat McMorrow. No information about parents of Patrick Ronan. First shows in 1850 census of Logan Co., Miami Twp. with the following Ronan family group: John and Mary ages 35 & 26, Mary and John age 2, Timothy age 25, Janus age 22, Ellen age 17. Any help appreciated. Margaret
