Mcmanaman Family Genealogy Forum
  
Hello! Just searching for some information on a McMenimen who lived in the area south of Boston (beteween Buzzards Bay and Hingham). Would have been born late 1800's or around turn of the century. He was my great-grandfather. He married a Swedish woman, Ina Rosqvist and had 3 children with her (Anna Mae, William (my grandfather) and Robert). However the McMenimen man (as he was referred to by my grandfather) was a drinker and gambler and split from the family when the kids were small. The children were raised by their Swedish grandfather and Ina remarried (that's how we are MacNevin's). Great aunt Anna Mae was the only one from the family who continued to have contact with the McMenimens and used to visit her paternal grandparents as well as her father's brother and sister. Neither married and I think that one or both of them were organists for the local movie house. I'm looking for more information on this family. Hoping that someone on this site has come in contact with this branch before. There is "family rumor" that my great-grandfather remarried also and had children with another wife. I'd love to learn about them as well! Hey, we were a dysfunctional family before it was popular to be one!
Thanks!!!!
