My family is via Jersey City.I've just started researching.Here's so far...My grandfather was John T. McGowan Sr. born in 1888.He married a Catherine Reilly.They had four daughters and one son, John T. Jr, born in 1928.From what I've heard John T. Sr., later an electrician, had lots of brothers and sisters.When his father, Felix, died, young John Sr. was separated from the rest of the family and was raised by a sister-in-law.If any of this sounds familiar, let me know.
