We lived in Kerry near to a farmer called Tony Horgan, near Milltown, Lissivane west, his wifes name is in the back of the brain but I believe they adopted a girl from Rumania. Obviously being Irish they were members of Lissivane church so the Pastor may be a good starting point Trebla079

Hi, My Grandfather was John Horgan, from the Moybella, Listowel area. Born approx 1835.
I've only recently started looking into my Father's family. This John Horgan had a daughter Ellen, who married James Murphy and had my Father.
I'm still actively looking into this, will help if I can.
I was only searching the names and your post from years ago came up :)

My greadgrandmother was Julia Horgan daughter of Michael and Mary Horgan.nee Quaid or Quard. Michael was a surveyor. Julia married Patrick Hennigan in Listowel in 1859 and they went to Australia and then onto New Zealand. I have not been able to find any connection in Ireland.

Hi, I only just read your message.. Strangely our Horgans came from Kerry, but at some point in the mid '20's my Grandparents moved to Abbeyfeale in Limerick, it would have been just across the river Feale. My Father was brought up there, came to London in the 1950's, met my Mother, a nurse, and stayed here in London.
Small world. :)


If I'm correct your fathers name is either johnny or patrick
