Cloyne Branch:
Michael Dorgan and Johanna Garde
Michael Dorgan, a son of Patrick Dargan/Dorgan and Johanna Flynn of Carrigkilter, married Johanna Garde in Cloyne in 1869. This branch bridges the earlier Carrigkilter baptism records with the later Cloyne / Rock Street household — and, in the next generation, with the Hartnett and Rhode Island branch.
Related narrative: Michael Dorgan and Johanna Garde of Cloyne
Evidence status: Confirmed marriage and parent-link evidence
Catholic marriage register, 26 Jan 1869, Cloyne. Witnesses: Thomas Smiddy, Eliza/Elizabeth Garde.
Why it matters: confirms Michael as a son of Patrick Dorgan and Johanna Flynn, and connects the Carrigkilter family to the Garde and Cloyne parish-register network.
Johanna Garde Dorgan household; Patrick Dorgan
Evidence status: Confirmed census and household evidence
House 17, Rock Street, Cloyne. Patrick Dorgan (son of Michael and Johanna, grandson of the Carrigkilter Patrick) was listed as a single farmer, age 29, in the household of his widowed mother Johanna, a vintner and grocer. Also in the household: Mary Eliza Dorgan, Helena Dorgan, and cousin David Dorgan.
Why it matters: separates this younger Patrick Dorgan of Cloyne from the earlier Patrick Dargan/Dorgan of Carrigkilter in the 1853 Griffith's Valuation, and connects the Carrigkilter line to the later Cloyne household and business setting.
Johanna Garde Dorgan household; Patrick Dorgan
Evidence status: Confirmed census and household evidence
Johanna Garde Dorgan, widow of Michael, mother of Patrick Dorgan (born 19 Nov 1870, who later married Johanna Millerick).
Why it matters: continues the Cloyne branch after the 1901 household and keeps the younger Patrick Dorgan of Cloyne distinct from the 1853 Carrigkilter Patrick.
