My brick wall concerns my great-grandfather, Thos. Higgins, born August 17, 1845 in County Sligo, Ireland. I believe his father's name was William, but this I cannot prove. The family were members of the Church of Ireland. Thomas married Anna Scott from Dromore West, Co. Sligo. She was also a member of the Church of Ireland. I have successfully researched her family, but Thomas remains 'unrooted.' They were married in Winnebago County, Illinois in 1869. According to the county records, the marriage certificate has been lost. Thomas & Anna were the parents of nine children, and again, I have that family data. I would be happy to add my Higgins tree to your site if you are interested.
Hoping to break through my brick wall,

I am trying to find the parents of Isaiah Higgins born abt 1805, died 1869 at age 64 in Gardiner Maine. In a book by Rev Sinnett "The Higgins Families of New England", he says "James is the father of Isaiah" but doesn't elaborate. I believe the James he is referring to is James Higgins, born 1780, died 1810, son of Reuben Higgins of Bath Maine. Although the Higgins are well documented in Maine, I can not find a marriage for James, or a birth record for Isaiah. I feel James moved to another town, got married, and had a child in that town. I also believe after James death, he went to live with his uncle Isaiah Higgins in bath Maine.
Any help or clues would be appreciated.

I am researching a Higgins family from Ireland.

The parents were David Higgins and wife Mary Higgins (no maiden name)

They had a daughter Mary Higgins born 1867 - 1871 in Ireland. Also possibly a daughter Catherine Higgins born 1861 in Ireland Mary Higgins married one John Noonan probably in
Brooklyn, NY They had 6 children born from 1888 - 1896:
John, Joseph, Daniel, Mary/Mae, Margaret, Catherine Noonan
They lived in the Red Hook section of Brooklyn.
Daniel & Catherine died as infants. The parents John Noonan and wife Mary Higgins Noonan died young in 1901 and 1902. The 4 remaining Noonan children were raised by an Aunt whom I believe was Catherine Higgins Cullinane, wife of John Cullinane.
I do not find any record of David Higgins & wife in Brooklyn.
Any help will be much appreciated.

My Great-Great grandfather was James Owen Higgins, (born in January 1827),later married Hannah Painter, (born in July 1828)on December 31,1848. I believe they were born in Tennessee, and may have later moved to Arkansas. I am attempting to find out who his parents and grandparents were. James Owen Higgins' son, Robert Benjamin Higgins, was born, May 15,1866,died February 28,1916.Robert was married to Nancy Jane McDonald, (born January 26,1866) on November 10,1887 in Perry county Arkansas.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

I think the answer to your question can be found by viewing the 1850 census below. It has a James and Clarissa Higgins living next to James and Hannah Higgins. Researching these people may answer your question.

Hi,
I am stumped on some of my Higgins ancestry.
They are:
    1)FRANCIS MARION HIGGINS,  b. 10/9/1856,KS, 
       mar 1. FLO MERRILL, 
       mar 2. OLLIE ONA LIVINGSTON.
    I have no idea where in KS that Francis was born, just where he is buried. 
     Lone Wolf, OK. And nothing on the others.
    2) JOHN WESLEY HIGGINS, father to Francis, 
         he married  ELIZABETH JANE HOUSTON.

I am hoping that you can help or tell me someone that can. My Mom started this several years ago and when she got sick, I took over.
Thank you for your time, Susan Detwiler Bonham, TX  skd_00@yahoo.com

An inquiry from Kristine Williams kristoddmitch@yahoo.com 

This was the obituary from my father's passing a while ago now. His name was Dillard Higgins. My grandfather's name was Charlie Higgins and my grandmother's name was Roxie Higgins (her maiden name was Macintosh. Born March 10 1908). They lived in KY.
I don't know much about my grandfather as he had past way long before I was born. I was trying to do some research on the Higgins family and did not see any of my mentioned family anywhere. Thought this might be nice to add to your project if you could find anything out

     HIGGINS DILLARD DENNIS April 4, 2002

My name is Diane Lynn Higgins Davin. danirn62@yahoo dot com

My father is Robert Joseph Higgins and my mother was Jewel Aileen Albritton. My father's father's name I believe was Edward Higgins. It is rumored that Edward dropped the "O" from O'Higgins because of the terrible prejudice to Irish during his time. My father was born Feb 4, 1920. His mother's name was Roegina Caldecote. They were residents in Jefferson Parish, Louisiana. My grandmother played excellent piano. It is rumored that she played piano for the silent movie theatre that existed on Canal Street in New Orleans. My grandfather was a typesetter for The Times Picayune. Later on, they owned a chicken farm in Baton Rouge Louisiana. This is where my parents met. My father said that he used to play on the Huey P. Long Bridge when it was being built. My father had several brothers and sisters: Millie, Edward, Frank, Loretta, Robert and John (Buddy). I think those were the names. Most of them were already dead by the time I was an adolescent. I have many cousins in New Orleans. My aunt Millie married an Hebert (pronounced A-Bear). They were very musical and talented. It is rumored that the Hebert's, my aunts family, is partly responsible for the New Orleans Ballet and Symphony.

I would love to find out more. This is all from a child's memory. I thank you for all your efforts. BUT ALWAYS REMEMBER WE ARE ALL RELATED...UNDER GOD!

God Bless You,
Diane HIGGINS Davin

I am looking for information on my grandfather, John Chester Higgins. he was born Apr. 3, 1886 in I think Bremond, Texas in Robertson County. his father was John and I'm not sure what his mothers name was. he was married to Anna Bell Evans and they had four daughters, Bessie, Mattie, Ruby, and Eunice. his wife died when the girls were young and he did remarry, no children though. my mother was daughter #3, Ruby. I guess what I would most like to know is what his mothers name was. most of the old-timers are gone now or can't remember anything. i know my grandfather moved his daughters to Longview, Texas and I think this is where he died. i know he's buried in Longview, Texas. he died in 1951. if anyone can offer me any information I would be very grateful.

Sincerely, Helen Berryman & daughter Vickie Coley


Here's what I found, the 1910 census shows the people she mentioned, going back to 1900 there is a Johnnie Higgins living with his sister Alice with a family named Shaw of which they are in laws. I searched for a Leona Higgins in 1880 census and did not find anything close.

Hello, My name is Debra Higgins. 

I stumbled across your site today while searching for information on my father, Chester Higgins. I have never met my father as he and my mother separated before my birth.. He should be nearing 90 at this time if he is still alive. 
The only information I have is as follows:
1) He was possibly born in Oklahoma
2) he was a house painter by occupation
3) He married Madelyn Taylor (my mother) in 1956 or 1957 in Binghampton NY. 
   At the time they were living in Danbury CT.
4) May be some family ties to the Torrence Massachusetts area.
5) He may have moved to Florida in the late 1950's

My mom said she looked for him, but she was not able to track his whereabouts'. 
Can anyone help me in finding any info on him. ? If only to guide me in a steadfast direction? Now I understand that he may very well be deceased by now. Having the mystery solved would be most gratifying.
Thank you kindly,
Debra Anne Higgins (debbie higgins)

John/Jehu Higgins, born about 1812 in KY, 
                         died 1869-1877, Guntersville, Marshall Co., AL

                             died 2-25-1997, Dallas, Dallas Co., TX

I am pretty sure that John Higgins served as Justice of the Peace in Marshall Co., AL, from 1838 to 1853, and that he married Nancy Cowan/Cowen on 12-31-1840 in Marshall Co., AL.

  Census Scan HIGGINS JEHU 48 M W KY AL MARSHALL GUNTERSVILLE P O 1860

Their children were: Sarah Ann (c1841), James (c1844), Rachael (C1847), Mills (c1847), Clinton (c1850), Amanda (c1853), P.A. (3-26-1861), and Jason Pinkney(c1866).

That's all I know about John. Other than my great-grandfather, Price Adel Higgins, I haven't been able to trace any of John and Nancy's other children.

Anything you might do or suggest would be very much appreciated

I was researching my ancestors line, and was looking at your web page and had noticed that you have a Mary Higgins (Patrick) Higgins living in Amhurst Mass. in 1886-87. My great grandparents names were Patrick and Mary Higgins. they had a son Thomas. he was born 1885. I don't know if there is any connection to the ones you have, but my great grandparents had 13 children all together. Thomas was the oldest. My grandmother was the youngest. her name was Elizabeth. I did have relatives who lived in Mass. the following aunts and uncles lived there, there were Patrick, John, Jim, Catherine, Anna, Margaret, there was also Dorothy, my grandmother, Francis died young, I cant remember the other names. but if you could help out with this puzzle, it would be so appreciated. thank you. hope to hear from you. I just remembered my uncle Bill also. he moved to Auburn NY as did my Aunt Dot and my grandmother. My great grandmother had died in I think E. Weymouth Mass. but is buried here in Auburn Ny. in St. Joseph's cemetery

Walter Everetton Higgins  b. 5/18/1889 Gosper County Nebraska Son of Thomas and Angeline Graham Higgins. Thomas left the family when Walter was eight and his mother moved them to Cloud County Kansas. Walter married Mary Ellen Brown Feb. 22, 1913, I am looking for info on any possible relatives of Thomas after he left family and also prior to 1889
