Dear James,
I can't offer much except that my great aunt's husband was a Will Gougherty. He died about 1938, I think. If you go into google and list Gougherty.St. Patrick Church Ada Michigan you'll likely get somewhere. There is a lady named Katie Cook who maintains a website with records of St. Pat's. It's just outside Grand Rapids. There is a book called the "Passing of the Gael" written by a priest of the diocese of Grand Rapids, Fr. McGee. It's likely out of print, but there were Goughertys in the GR area then. Let me know what you find out. I'd prefer direct e-mail. I'm not sure the posting system shows it, but mine is

BTW, there is a Giglio family in the parish I work in in Cincinnati.
