Your names could have some meaning. Can you give me any other names in your
Higgins line. My g.g.grandfather; Peter Hargadon/Hardiman, Athlone,
Ireland...married Penelope Veasey. Their daughter was baptised in 1840
Margaret Hardiman. Sara Cruise & Bernard Higgins were the sponsors. Bernard
married Penelope's mother Bridget Veasey/Vesey. They moved to Dane County,
Wisconsin after the Hardimans died during the P.Famine...abt. 1850. Their
children the oldest daughter brought the boys to America abt. 1856. Mary
Hardiman Maguire. We can't find out what happened to her. But, heard that
her one of her younger brothers Patrick went to Ohio?? He married Harriet
Harris. Peter my g.grandfather and Patricks brother..settled in Virginia and
married Sarah Johnston. They are buried behind their homestead there. I have
lots of information the Higgins...they did marry into this famiy. Bernard
Higgins & Bridget Veasey Higgins...and several children are buried in Dane
Co. Wisconsin. You may want to try this email...I printed it out today.
