Maureen,
I know a Brogan who owned a tavern in Gurnee area, but not sure he still owns it... Usetabe's, pronounced Use-ta-bee's. He is more a friend of my hubby's. I believe Anthony MORAN may be a decendent of the MORAN's who lived in the Newport area, like nearer to Wadsworth.
By the way, my dad is from North Chicago and my uncles owned taverns there too... Atkinson's and Fox's. Small world, hey? Hahaha
