I have been researching the Boggan/Bogan for years. The family arrived before the American Revolution in Pa.The family finaly moved to North Carolina,Georgia,Alabama,South Carolina and finally to other States through out the U.S.A.
My mother was Etta Bogan from Hazel Valley, Arkansas. We are searching for information on her brother, Earl Lester Bogan b Feb 1892 who was last heard from in the late 40's. Their parents were Claron and Melissa Guinn Bogan.
Earl Lester Bogan had several children from multiple wives. His oldest child is my grandfather, Jack Bogan who lives in Lemon Cove, California. Jack installed Claron's headstone in Hazel Valley around 2000.
My Grandfather was Harmon Jefferson Bogan. He was from Iowa or near that I think. He married Bessie Telford who also was from that area. My father was George O. Bogan, he was born near Long Prairie, Minnesota in 1921. In the 1930's when my Dad was 15, the whole family moved out to San Diego, CA. I was born here and still live here. Stephen Bogan.
I am researching the HART family. Suppposedly, a fellow named ELISHA HART married Elinore "Nellie" Bogan about 1781. She was daughter of John and Hannah Grist Bogan.
Wow, I haven't looked into this site for a long time. Bogan-ness is all around us!!

Hello to all. My great great grandfather was Charles Bogan. He was born in County Donegal and came to the US in 1844 with his mother Esther, his brother Bernard and his sister Mary. They settled in Newark, New Jersey. Mary married a gentleman by the name of Edward McGeehan and moved to Racine Wisconsin. Bernard moved to Brooklyn NY around 1851 and became very prominent in the Brooklyn Saint Vincent DePaul Society. Charles would become a well known and respected baker in Newark, New Jersey, operating a bakery on Mulberry Street. My Bogan clan got brave in the 1920s, venturing out of Newark to the nearby suburb of Maplewood, New Jersey.
If any of this sounds familiar, you can contact me at ringelpc@aol.com
