Family: Anna Higgins daughter of a James Higgins, who may have come to
Iowa from Canada,
around enterprise Canada??. Anna also had a sister Kate who died in Omaha Nebraska
around 1952.
Wife of James Higgins is unknown at this time. There also may have been a Charles or
Julia, siblings.
Anna married a Patrick DeLoughary in Iowa, we assume around
1878-1880. Their first child was born
in 1881 in Michigan. (Harris Michigan in Menominee County) Have not been able to
find any information on a marriage of these people (Anna & Patrick) or birth of the
Higgins children, or death of James Higgins.
Ann Higgins was born in Oct. 2-1863, and died in 1931 in Harris Michigan, and buried
in the
Bark River, Mi. Cemetery along with her husband
Patrick.
The information of Iowa came
from her son from the funeral home in Bark River Mi. and also on her death certificate.
They also had her coming from Illinois, on
Anna's and Patrick's children's birth records. So we have been searching
both places. And also checking Ireland,
as they may have come from there to Canada to Iowa.
