I believe this is the same Bridget Corrigan from my husband's family tree.She was born in Ireland to John Corrigan and Ellen Murray.They emmigrated to Philadelphia apparently, where their son Peter was born. 9 more children were born in Belleville, Hastings, Ontario, Canada.The family then moved to Holyrood, Kinloss, Bruce, Ontario, Canada.I have Bridget and Luke in the 1861 census there.In 1870 they are in Michigan, and by 1880 Bridget is widowed and in Kansas. At least 2 of Bridget's siblings also moved to Kansas, including Catherine Corrigan whose husband Roger Cain founded Cain City, Kansas. Luke, Bridget, Catherine and Roger are all buried in the old Cain City Cemetery.Contact me if you want to share info.
