Keogan family in New Jersey
My grandfather was Matthew Keogan(DOB about 1870)who probably lived in Jersey City in his youth. He later purchased property in North Arlington, NJ on Stover Avenue where he and his wife Rose Veronica ? raised their four children: Margaret Keogan (Liebolt), Charles Keogan (married Agnes Grady of Phillipsburg, NJ), Rose Keogan(Quinzer) and Christopher Keogan (married Mary ? of North Arlington). I do not know of any brothers or sisters of Rose or Matthew, but both were immigrants of Ireland, although it is difficult to find any Irish roots for Keogan. Many English though. Any information out there?

Did The Christopher Keogan you mentioned move back to ireland.

Sounds like Christopher Joseph Keogan is in Ireland - Boyle, County Roscommon. His grandfather was from Dublin, originally from County Cavan.
Is that you, cousin Chris? He has your name. Must be one of Christy KEOGAN's decendants.

So where are you from? There seem to be some Keogans in new Jersey. Which is odd enough. Im not sure about my family, but my grandad is as far as i can trace back, until i can trace back further. I found out that my Grandfather married Agnes Dooley. Who was my grandmother...Obviously. So where are you from, and what was YOUR grandfathers name?
