MARRIAGE #2 (Newspaper) (To Patrick Edward Hynes): 21 Jan 1872 - by Rev. William Spreckels - Old St. Mary's Cathedral (Roman Catholic), 660 California Street, San Francisco, CA
Sister of James Colgan (c. 1841-1912)
She may have been the Godmother of Thomas Murphy, son of Richard and Elizabeth Colgan Murphy.
More than half a dozen Colgans from this family immigrated to the United States from Ireland in the wake of an Gorta Mór (the Great Famine), beginning circa 1850, and likely accomplished by chain migration. The exact number and identities are still under research, but the known members of the immigrant generations were:
