Coogan family of Urlingford, Kilkenny
Lawrence (b.1829 Urlingford, Ireland d.1906 New Zealand)and Honora (nee Scott b.1841 ireland d.1880 New Zealand) Coogan immigrated to New Zealand in 1880 with their 9 children. Honora died in Timaru Hospital later that year (1880). There are now up to 6 generations of Coogans in New Zealand and Australia descended from these two pioneers.
Lawrence was the son of William Coogan and Mary Malone. Lawrence had 3 brothers and one sister all born in Urlingford. Mick was born 1824, William 1832, John 1834 and Mary b1838. I am searching for information and descendents of these siblings of Lawrence.

Dear 'coogs14', Hi. I'm assuming you must be Maxine from GR. I'm researching the HUGHES of NZ and formerly of Kent, England and all their descendants, some of which include the PETCH family. If you would like any photographs, please send me a personal message containing your email addy and I'll forward them on.
Ok, do you have this information below:-
Lawrence COOGAN died 29 Jun 1880 Timaru SCY NZ CTF25656-066. This is weird, Honora has the same death date.
Found a 1932 marriage of Honora Catherine COOGAN to Charles Patrick MCCARTHY.
Make sure you check out the RootsChat.com - Ireland - Kilkenny board to see if rootschatters can find the other children (and their families) of your William COOGAN and Mary MALONE.
Have you also first perused the FamilySearch.org website in case their records are already there?
Best wishes and good luck,
