THE HOGAN NAME Name in Gaelic: O hOgain [Descendant of Ogan, a diminutive of og meaning young] Hogans, one of the principal families of Munster, are descended from Croscrach, the son of Lorcan, King of Thomond and the uncle of Brian Boru [d. 1014], one of the most celebrated of all Irish Monarchs. Chiefs of Croich Cian, the Hogans held sway over a considerable territory in the northeast of the ancient Kingdom of Thomond, encompassing most of the present day barony of Upper Ormond, County Tipperary. They erected fortified residences in the parishes of Ballylusky and Ardcrony, north of Nenagh. Soon after the Anglo-Norman invasion in the late 12th century, a branch of the sept migrated eastward to County Kildare, where in the year 1253, they founded the Dominican friary at Athy. Another family who settled in Clare, gave their name to Ballyhogan in the parish of Dysart. Today in Ireland, the majority of the surname are found in or near the Hogan's original homeland in Tipperary and neighboring Clare and Limerick as well as Cork. In the latter county, bearers of the surname may be of Corca Laidhe lineage. Seated in southwest County Cork, their ancient ancestor, Luighaidh Laidhe, was the grandfather of Luighaidh Mac Con, 3rd century King of Ireland.

PREFACE At this first writing of the Hogan Family History, the information was gathered, primarily from personal memories, cemetery visits, etc. As we add to the tree (go further back into our history), more documentation will become necessary. The information on the Colemans was provided by Clayton W. Coleman. It is included here as an appendix to the Hogan Line since my mother is a Coleman and that line is an integral part of my personal ancestry. The format of this work mirrors that of the work done on the Coleman family by Clayton W. Coleman. This format was used for two reasons; first, it is a good, easy to read format, and second, to maintain consistency between the Coleman Family History and the Hogan Family History documents. I undertook this work so that I could pass down the family history to my son and to future generations of Hogans. Much of the information contained herein would provide a great deal of trouble to future genealogists if it was not written down while we remember. Specifically, there are two Hogan families referenced herein. Clara Trevethick and Julia Trevethick (sisters) each married an Edward Hogan. This created two Hogan lines in the same family. It is my hope that you will enjoy this family history and then, add to it continuing your own personal line.
