Surnames: Mehan Classification: Obituary Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/VEC.2ACI/3715 Message Board Post: When death claimed M.C. Mehan at Providence hospital yesterday there passed from the scene one of Everett's best-known pioneers. M.C. was born in Irleland in 1844. In 1849 he came with his parents to the U.S. and settled in N.J. later removing to Illinois and Superior WI. and comming to Everett in 1892. A widow and one son survive, the later being Harry C. Mehan, of Roy, WA. As Mr. Mehan is of civil war age I researched his name and could not find a M.C. nor a McCormick serving. I did however find a Cormick Mehan serving with 4th NY Heavy Art. joined age 21 in 1863 which was close to his age.. McCormick and his wife Jennie E and son Edgar and son Harry C are buried at Evergreen cemetery. If anyone is researching this surname would love to connect.
