Ollie, I have Gahans in Virginia, West Virginia, Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois. I
know this is a far reach - but on this line far reaches are all there is. After
1850 in Kentucky, the family seemed to separate and moved to all four corners of the
states. From what you know on your McGahan's, does any of this relate?
