O'Deargains came to Columbus Ohio in about 1848 and still live there for thhe most part.
Family Bible points out County Tipperary as original home and vicinity of Cashel by the Golden Vale
as being associated.Family name changed to Dorgan post arrival in Fall River,Mass.in 1848 / 9.
Great grandfather married Johannah Power in Clonmel prior to immigration...several brothers
also made crossing from Eire in 1848/9 but went West to California inGold Rush and were not
heard from again....G'father Wm Dorgan married Eliz. Quinn from Waterford in 1885....

Jim: Thanks for your comments. Sorry for the slow reply! Your Dorgans are another branch (Tipperary or perhaps Carrignavar). Do you have a family website or can you send me a link to these Dorgans? I would like to investigate a possible connection. Thanks, Bill Dorgan
