My father was John Joseph Hallahan Jr. from the Perth Ambouy area of New Jersey. He claimed to be 1 of 13 children and also 1 of a set of twin boys, his faher was a Tatter (lace Maker) and he had some sort of troubled past as he would never tell us of our aunts and uncles on his side of the family.
I have searched for many of my 52 years with no success, I am hoping someone out there recognises this story. Dad said he was arrested for stealing Bread to help feed his brothers and sisters, That is the only thing he ever told me!
I learned that he married my Mother in Georga under the name of John Barnett and had to remarry her under his real name, seems he had a step family in Texas by that name?
Any information at all, good or bad will fill a life long void!
Thanks John J Hallahan III
