The 1892 NY Census turns up a Callan family with some fits for names and dates that are
fits or approximate fits for Ann Callan, my gggrandmother, and Elizabeth Callan, my
ggrandmother. At the time, the family was residing in Brooklyn were Ann Callan (born
around 1838 in Ireland) with children (all"U.S." birth locations per the census)
Annie (1866), Kate (1868) James (1870), Lena (1872), Thomas (1874), Lizzie (1876), and
Elizabeth (1878).
Still searching, but it looks like the patriarch died young. There is a Callan family in
the 1880 Federal census living in Campria Co., Conemaugh Borough, Pennsylvania. Patriarch
there is John Callan, born around 1840 in Ireland. Any possible connection there? If I
can match up with the male head of the family, I will know if I am on the right track.
