Saw this and couldn't not write. I am the granddaughter of Katherine Taggert. She did not die in 1904 in Scotland. She didnot come to America with the family back in 1904 but came with her uncles I am told. She did join them in Cherry Illinois where she met my grandfather Joseph I. Irvin. They moved to Iowa then Minnesotat and back and forth finally settling in Minn. In this marriage she had eight children Joseph, David, Mary, John, Edward, James, Paul, and Margaret. Joseph died in 1930-1932 from cancer in Minnesota. Maragret died very early believe she was married a man named Dunn. She then at some later date married Aaron Hogeboom and they had one daughter Catherine. Gramma died when she was 94 or 95. Aaron passed in 1979 I think and Catherine maybe 10 years ago, not sure. Of the Irvin children the surviving children are (*). . Let me know if I can help more.So if you are katherines grand daughter then you and i are cousins. Im mike taggert from norfolk va. I am your uncle jims son

I found John & Gladys in the 1930 Census in Cedar Rapids, Iowa (not Ohio). I found a wedding anniversary notice in the Cedar Rapids Gazette from 25 Jan. 1972 that says they were married 10 Jan. 1922 in Cedar Rapids and Gladys' maiden name was Sage. Three foster sons attended the party. I also found an obituary for Gladys that says she died 19 Jan. 1975 in Cedar Rapids.So one of the fsoters was johns nephew james david irvin. My father. Gladys passed in 1975 and john lived with us in norfolk va when he became feeble fro. Parkinsons. He is buried beside Gladys.
