I am the granddtr of Ruth Agnes Gahan and am really excited to find this message board. Have just recently gotten into this ancestry thing. Have some info on Ruth's bros. sister and a little on Thomas Arthur Gahan and Mary Catherine Connell. But very little of Benjamin Hanorah Gahan, whom I believe to be the parents of Thomas Arthur Gahan. I have Thomas Arthur Gahan and Mary Catherine Connell children as: Ruth Agnes, Mattie Edith, Jennie May, Gertrude, Thomas Earl and Raymond August. Please contact me.

I am the grand daughter of Mattie Edith Gahan and daughter of Donald Lowell Moyer. (This account is registered in my husbands name ie- the reason for Robert Dudoit). I remember meeting Auntie Ruth and Aunt Gennie and have a picture I took of them on a visit down south. Was Mattie married to a Schuler before she married Grandfather Moyer? I was born Catherine Camille Moyer and am married to Robert Dudoit. If you would like a copy of my picture, (oh-also have picture of Thomas and two sons), I can scan it and send them to you. Meanwhile I will be building a photo album at imagestation.com and try posting what I have. Thank you for sharing. Looks like we might be distant cousins......Sincerely Catherine (Kitty) Dudoit
