Thank you for responding.....
I have been unable so far to find out who my 2nd great-grandfather was. I do not have his name, only that he left his son, John Joseph, Sr, b. 9/6/1863 with others(?)in NYC and went into the Civil War after his wife died. Don't know her name either....
Have been trying to find out by eliminations:
1. What Egans originally came to this country either from Ireland or England? and trace them down.....probably arriving in NYC
2. Go through all Egans who served in the Civil War.
3. (Know that my great-grandfather, John Joseph, Sr.was an alter boy in NYC)Writing Catholic churches existing there during the Civil War for any records.
4. Tracing Egans who lived in NYC @ and around the time of the Civil War and after...
Posting 524 takes my lineage from John Joseph Sr to my grandfather....
Thank you for any help.....
