Annie Frayne (May) SEERY, Edward John Victor WILLIAMS

Hello Meka
Yes, a very large number of relatives. John Hogan, husband of Mary Gertrude Seery, was one of 11 children, most of whom married and had large families also. I don't know of any twins among the second generation, i.e. John and Mary Hogan's grandchildren, but in the third generation I have identical twin cousins.

Hogan children:
John Joseph Hogan married Margaret Charles: Mary, William, John, Joseph, Margaret, Kathleen.
James Hogan married Martha Cowan: Janet
Thomas Hogan did not marry
Patrick, Edward and Martin Hogan died as infants.
Alice Hogan married Edmund Balfe: Noel
Kathleen and Margaret Hogan did not marry.
Mary Cecilia Hogan married James Sullivan: John (my father), Brian, Desmond, Kevin and Noel.
The other feature of the Hogan family is the determination not to let good names go to waste, which is very confusing looking at the multitudes of Mary, Margaret, Catherine, Alice, John, James etc.

I am handicapped by the date limits of the Qld RBDM so I don't know very much about the later generations of the Hogan family.
Regards
EllenS

Hello all!, (extended family)

I have only just sat down and read all of this information and am a little confused LOL...
I'm going to sit down and go back into the tree bit by bit so I know who is who.

Please keep in touch, Michelle :-)

Hi Ellen,

Just a quick question for you while I'm working on the tree tonight, are the Hogans from the USA the correct branch?

Thanks Michelle :-)

[EllenS]

Michelle
As far as I know all members of this particular branch of the Hogans came to Australia. My great great grandparents, John Hogan and Alice Noonan, sailed from Liverpool in 1863 with their children and all those children remained in Australia.
However, John Hogan might well have had siblings who went from ireland to the US.
John was born in Kilbehenny/ Mitchelstown area about 1815, the son of Edward Hogan. Alice was born about 1817, the daughter of John Noonan and Hannah Mahoney.

Thankyou,
That does clear up a few things for me as there were hints that I thought may have been wrong.

My husband and I are working on our tree "SHARROCK & WILLIAMS family tree", we had to start it again as Steve ended up adding a few of his family members twice... So, if you see "Sharrock/Williams", that's our old tree.

Hope to hear back from you soon,
Michelle

oh goodness,

I forgot to ask, what is the name of your Tree?

[EllenS]

Michelle
If that message is addressed to me, then I don't have a tree online

Yes EllenS, that question was addressed to you.

I was hoping that you may have a family tree on Ancestry etc because you seem to have alot of information that could be very helpful

Hope you've had a great day

Ok, after walking away from the family tree for a while, a much needed break through has been made by my cousin.
Turns out that Austyn is my Grandfather... For questions that now remain unanswered as i'm still getting over the fact, my Grandfather changed his name back in the 1920's.

With One answer comes many many questions haha!
