THOMAS HAGGERTY:

b: 1846, Belfast Academy Grant (Ludlow ME); baptized 29 August 1846,
St Mary's RCCh,
Houlton ME , sp:Kyran Walsh & Bridget Gilaspey

Thomas worked the farm at Ludlow ME, migrated, 1868, to Cambria
Co PA, resided
there for 4 years, then came to Stillwater MN, 1872. There he
established the village of
Houlton WI (after Houlton ME, now the villiage of St Joseph WI,
just across the St Croix
River from Stillwater MN) ) became a retail store, tavern & hotel
keeper as well as
property and lumber dealer, farmer and Houlton WI's post-master.

From "Red" Haggerty (son of Edmond P Haggerty in the Peter
Haggerty Jr line); "Uncle Tom
Haggerty originated in Houlton Maine and about more or less
emigrated to Wisconsin
where he opened up a general merchandise store on the Wisconsin
side of the St Croix
River and christened the town, that grew up around his store,
Houlton. I can still
remember him, shorter than our dad and more heavy set, but the
same type of mould.
Besides the store he was the postmaster also. I do not remember
when or how he died but
do recall that he turned the store over to E. P. <as above Edmond
P Haggerty> to manage
and run it, while still alive. Dad did not do very well. He gave
credit to anyone and
everyone and finally closed up the business. Shortly after doing
so, as I recall, the building
burned down, completely."

From Ms Jayne Finnergan Smith a long time resident of Houlton WI:
" Our Ggp's Mary Jane
Keays and Wm Keays were very good friends of both Tom Haggerty and
"old" Ed
Haggerty <Edmond P>. We grew up thinking that we (the Conway's,
my grandparents),
the Joyce's and Haggerty's were the only 3 Catholic families in
Houlton <WI> and later in
life we equated ourselves to Houlton <WI> what the Kennedy's were
to Hyannisport. Yes,
I was present in my best Sunday garb to many of your family. I
remember Charles in his
service uniform <from the Peter Haggerty Jr branch> coming to
visit us during WWII. If
you could call me , I have some entertaining stories about the 3
families. My number is:
651-439-5447". <July, 1999>
