The Manion Line

Raymond Edward Coogan’s mother’s family. Connacht, Ireland to Rhode Island

Paternal line. Raymond Coogan’s maternal ancestors

The Manions came to the United States by way of England. Patrick John Manion (1837-1907) and Honora Carrabine (b. 1835) were both born in Ireland, in Connacht; the 1880 census at Warwick, Rhode Island, records all six of their children then at home, the youngest, Mary, included, as born in England. The family tree gives 1873 for the crossing. Their daughter Honora, known as Nora Annie, probably born at Sheffield, Yorkshire, in 1865, married John Joseph Coogan in Warwick, Rhode Island in 1885.
