You are our 569th visitor since 8/10/1999 -- thanks for stopping by!

The purpose of a mailing list is to help us make connections with others who are researching the same line. The name is "Milligan" only because that's the way my family spells it and I was the first to request a RootsWeb list. If you spell it "Millican" or Millikin" - or any other variant - you are equally welcome in this group.

The goal of this page makes the Mailing List more effective by providing a central collection of links to resources pertaining to the MILLIGAN surname [and variant spellings], and links to web sites belonging to our individual members.

 

Archives

The mailing list archives are now accessible through the RootsWeb Resources system. There, you will also find links to other RootsWeb sites that contain information about MILLIGANs, the RootsWeb Surname List, and a search engine that will help you find the what you need in many databases. It covers any spelling that shares the M425 Soundex code. Go to Milligan (M425) at Rootsweb

 

Linked MILLIGAN Families


James MILLIGAN, Sr. was born in Ireland. Possibly Londonderry, about 1730; possibly Belfast, about 1745. He came to America, we think PA, then moved to Iredell Co., NC about 1765. He first wife's maiden name was Sloan. They had seven children, Alexander, William, Hannah, Bettie, Sarah, an unknown daughter, and Thomas. He married Eleanor Allen in 1775 in Salisbury, Rowan, NC. There were no issue from this marriage. About 1794, he married Ruth Templeton in Iredell County, NC. They had six children: James, John, an unknown daughter, Mary, Robert, and David.

James MILLIGAN and Ruth TEMPLETON removed from Iredell Co., NC with their family to Wilson Co. TN sometime between 1803 and 1810. All of the marriages of the children take place there. James died in 1828, in Wilson County, TN. Sometime after that, but before 1840, Elijah ARMSTRONG, James MILLIGAN, John MILLIGAN, and David MILLIGAN moved to Cannon Co., TN.


Andrew Francis MILLIGAN, son of David MILLIGAN, grandson of James MILLIGAN, Sr., was born in Gentry Co., MO on April 22, 1850. He married Mary Jane FRIEND on October 23, 1870. They made the Run of '91 into Oklahoma Territory when the Iowa lands were opened for settlement.

MILLIGAN Researchers & Their Web Sites

Each entry in this section gives the member's name and e-mail address, and a thumbnail sketch of the family with a clickable link to the family's chart, web site, or both. RootsWeb does not allow the posting of complete GEDCOM files, but a brief chart like this falls within their guidelines. If you want to add your chart to our collection, e-mail it to Sharon McAllister. Charts must be no more than three generations and contain no living individuals.
