Mary Hagen probably already has informed you years ago but my great grandfather Perry Loughrey was one of John's brothers. At one time in the 1850s they all lived on the Root River near Chatfield Minnesota on the land that my father grew up on. From what I remember John moved on to Colorado. The Carolinas does not sound right to me - Iowa or Ill. would be a better state for John's birth.

My grandfather William Loughrey was born in Derry about 1876 and was the son of Patrick Loughrey and Catherine Beattie both born about 1843. I have heard that the family (Loughrey) were originally from Rathmullan, however, haven't been able to trace anything more. Any possible help would be appreciated. Many thanks,

Loughery guestbook: Recently I received an e-mail from someone calling himself Peter Plepps saying he decendet from a William Loughery who had resided in the Chicago area. Within a couple of weeks of corresponding I deducted that this guy was running a scam...he wanted to bless me with his good fortune. Please anyone on these list need to be aware of these scams.
I know this is off topic but I had to warn you all.

William Loughrey b. 1829 PA wife Eliza Steel b. 1830 moved to CA

CameronAshley — 2010-10-10 19:02:03Z

I saw this old 2002 post and had a little info to help out but the poster's email address is no longer good so I'm putting it in here. Here is her original post:
I'm looking for information about my great great grandmother's parents, William Loughrey and Eliza Steele. I know that they were born in PA abt 1829 and 1830. They moved to VA, to IA, to CA where they settled. Their daughter Mary Francis was born 19 Feb 1868 in IA. Different records spell the name differently: Laughrey, Loughery, Lougherey, and Loughrey. Other children: Alison, b. 1852, VA; Ema, b. 1854, VA; Charles V., b. 1856, IA; Annie Eliza, b. 1858, IA; Joseph, b. 1866, IA; Ellen M., b. 1872, IA; Amelia, b. 1873, CA.Thank you in advance for any clues you can provide.

My answers: William Loughrey and wife Eliza are buried in Pomona Cemetery and Mausoleum, Pomona, CA (see Find a Grave for headstone photos). Their daughter Emma M. Loughrey b. 1854 was one of two of the first young schoolteachers for Central School in Pomona and married 1878 Senator Joseph E McComas, a much older man and they had 3 children together: Rush McComas b. 8 Aug 1878 CA, Maude Pearl McComas b. 23 Dec 1879 and Mary Ethel McComas b. 18 July 1885.

The daughter Annie Eliza b. 1858 is also buried in Pomona Cemetery as Annie Eliza Mitchell. She married a James L. Mitchell. See this bio for more information on her son:
ALLEN G. MITCHELL
A rising lawyer of Pomona, with offices in the Investment Build-
ing, in association with J. A. AUard, where he is becoming a potent
factor in the various cases from this section of Los Angeles County,
Allen G. Mitchell is well known to the citizens of Pomona and
environs. A son of the late James L Mitchell, who is mentioned on
another page of this history, he was born at Montesano, Chehalis
County, Wash., May 25, 1894. His mother, a native of Iowa, was
in maidenhood Anna Loughrey, and is still living here.

Allen G. attended the public schools of Pomona and finished in
the high school, soon after which he began to read law, and in time
was admitted to the bar; then he entered the law school of the Univer-
sity of Southern California and was graduated with the class of '18.
Prior to his graduation he was for eighteen months connected with the
Los Angeles Board of Trade. On April 16, 1918, he enlisted in the
Naval Reserves and was released from active service on December 13,
that year. In August, 1919, he took up his present law association
with Joseph A. Allard, Jr., and since then has had his share of the law
business of Pomona and vicinity.

Mr. Mitchell was united in marriage on October 4, 1916, with
Miss Elva Farrar, a native daughter, born in Ventura County, and
they have a daughter, Margaret Mitchell. Mr. Mitchell is interested
in all projects that have for their aim the betterment of conditions for
the people of this Valley, as well as the building up of the interests
of the Vallev itself.

The Pomona Public Library has some digitized photos online of Senator Joseph E McComas and his wife Emma M Loughrey McComas. Also great biosketches available online through a Google Book Search.

Re: John Loughrey/Caroline Walker

serickson401 — 2010-01-02 15:14:33Z

According to the 1850 U.S. Census for Delaware County IA, Daniel Walker was 55 years old at that time, so 1795 would match with that. It lists his birthplace as North Carolina.

James Loughrey and Mary Thompson in PA

I'm looking for the original immigrant of the James Loughrey (b. 1770 PA, d. 1851 IL) line. Info so far tells me that it was James Loughrey b. 1730 N. Ireland d. bef. 1810 PA but I'm trying to verify it.

Re: search

marievanlaeys163 — 2009-07-25 17:24:56Z

My great grandmother came from Co. Donegal her name was Bridget Loughrey she also had two sisters Margaret and Mary who immigrated to Philadelphia, Bridget landed in NY in 1871 at age 16. Ended up in Philadelphia married in 1877 again in 1895 and died in 1928. Her parents were Bernard Loughrey and Magaret McCaffrey of Castlefinn Co. Donegal. Margaret's parents were John McCaffrey and Maggie Kelly.

Re: Loughrey surname

marievanlaeys163 — 2009-07-25 17:09:55Z

I saw that you have a Loughrey married to a Kelly. Recently I found information for a part of my Loughrey family I have a Bernard Loughrey married to a Margaret McCaffrey and Margaret's parents were John McCaffrey and Maggie Kelly. I believe since Bernard and Margaret wher found in Castlefinn Co. Donegal in 1864 that the other families connected could have been located in nearby towns.

Re: Loughrey Family (help)

marievanlaeys163 — 2009-07-25 16:57:14Z

My great great grandfather was Bernard Loughrey married to Margaret McCaffrey. Bernard was born about 1830(+-)found living in Castlefinn, Co. Donegal in 1864 in LDS film. In the obituary for my great grandmother (Bridget Loughrey McGlynn) husband John V. McGlynn in 1890 they are mentioned living in Riskey (perhaps a mis-spell for Rooskey). A dead search in Dublin by a distant relative mentions property in Sessesgahlong being transfered upon his death to his wife Margaret McCaffrey and after hers to Margaret Loughrey McGranahan. Would appreciate learning more on Patrick Loughrey and if you feel my Bernard Loughrey could be the Bernard you mentioned as son of Patrick Loughrey

Bob, I know it's been a while, been away from researching. Do you actually have copies of the death certificates for James, William and Ellen? If willing, can I obtain copies of them or at least the detail on them?

Thanks Colleen

Re: John Loughrey/Caroline Walker

medmud — 2008-07-29 00:07:42Z

My husband's great-great grandparents were John Loughrey and Caroline Walker. Their son Earl Kellogg Loughrey was his maternal great-grandfather.

My husband's grandmother, Verna Julia Loughrey, told me she remembered her grandmother Caroline. "She liked to turn herself around," she told me. His grandmother told me that John and Caroline lost a baby while they were moving by wagon and had to bury the baby on the prairie.

Today I found her parents' names in the Iowa census records of 1850 and 1860. Her father was Daniel M. (born ca. 1795) and her mother was Betsey (born ca. 1797 in Va.) There are conflicting records of his birth place. Two of three records say South Carolina and one says North Carolina. Do you have any more details about this family?
Thank you,
Lynn

Re: John Loughrey and wife Nancy Ann>their son James

Colleen,
I have records of several marriages in Marysville that include sponsors and relative names. Also have death cert. of James and William(1896)and Ellen(1891) death dates. I don't know if these are correct or where I got them, it's been a while.

Re: John Loughrey and wife Nancy Ann>their son James

2006-12-05 02:46:02Z

I am a descendant of John and Hannah (Hamilton)John being the third child of William and Ellen and brother to JamesAny idea when and why James and Nancy (Tracey) left Ontario for Michigan. Do you have any records from Marysville?
It appears that James and Nancy had about 14 children, which I have names for some.
Do you know which parish they may have been part of in West Bay City, MI?
Any knowledge of William and Ellen (O'Ray) i.e., death dates, cemetery, etc.?
Thanks,

The James that I am referring to lived in Harrison Co. Va. in the late 1700's and early 1800's. His wife was a Margaret Kefore/Kefauver. I was trying to figure out if he was the son of John and Nancy Loughrey.

Sorry for the delay but I've been out of town etc. I can direct you to some of the actual sites on Ancestry.com that have my relatives death certificates, etc etc. I would love to compare notes since there was a Margaret who came to the U.S. with a son Joseph and a daughter Maggie and they seem to fit. But, I need to confirm. I do have a obit for my great uncle Michael that lists the brothers and sisters and will help you tell if we are in fact related. I hope so! You can email me directly at peterson.beverly@gmail.com if you like.

Margaret Loughrey/Pennsylvania/1764-1855

I have Margaret Loughrey, born in Lehigh County, Pennsylvania about 1764, who married George Gearhart in Pa in 1780. I know nothing more of her family. Does anyone have a copy of the 1923 book by Julia Ann Jewett titled "The Loughrey Family......"? If yes, is there a Margaret that matches the little bit I know? Or any other leads?

Beverly, Just popped in after being away from it for a while, all my LOUGHREY ancestors come from around Moville, Inishowen. I was curious about your LOUGHERY connections, I have been looking for a JOHN LOUGHREY who apparently died in SAN FRANCISCO in 1917, (according to BEN PALMERS website) JOHN was my great uncle, he had many brothers,Neil Joseph, Denis,Edward, Charles, Michael Joseph, Hugh, James Patrick, Patrick Leo, and sisters Mary, Catherine B, Teresa J, and Margaret. all born between 1872 and 1895. I would be happy to exchange any details I have with you.

Re: Loughery/San Francisco/Donegal Ireland`

2005-11-27 00:28:12Z

Obviously it's been a couple of years since you placed this post - but we're all on some other 'timeline' when it comes to discovering and rediscovering relatives we may never have head of until a month ago or so. Do you have a Michael or Joseph in your search? Our Great Uncle Michael came over in 1899 on the Majestic. Joseph (My grandfather) came over before 1912 and helped Michael come over. I think there was an another brother named John.

I just received a death certificate for Bridget Loughrey who was born in Northern Ireland her father's name Bernard Loughrey the certificate has nothing on her mother. She was born around 1864 and arrived about 1871 in Philadelphia PA. Do these names sound familiar to you?

Hi Marie

I too am looking for a Bridget Loughrey but my Bridget I think is a little younger than the one that you are looking for. and she was married to my great grandfather Francis Oakes, some time just after 1901. arround the same date ffom Ireland. I do have some more just not to hand.

I know that that Bridget is from Ireland and have recently that she was from the Donegal area, and specifically buncrana. This seems to be a hotspot of Loughrey activity... and you may find some luck their...
