Hi all,

Reposting my Gallagher information. I've been working this line for 20+
years and am especially interested in finding missing details about 4 of
Gibson and Mary (Leonard) Gallagher's children listed below.

Please note that the Gibson Gallagher listed below was also known as
"John"...I've found many documents with him listed as such (particularly
church records) and I have conflicting evidence of his birth as either in
Michigan or in Canada (though I haven't any idea of specific locality)...

If you don't want to weed through all the details below, here are the
allied surnames: COMPTON, DAVEY, GRUGIN, HAUGH, HENDRICKSON, HINTZ, HOWE,
IZATT, JACOBSON, LEONARD, LINCOLN, LOCKWOOD, MITCHELL, SASS, WEIKUM, WILSON
