In the
Civil Survey of 1654-56 we find
Loghlen O Hogan of Gortnaskehy gt
Bryen O Bryen of Curraghmore Gent
Dermot O Bryen of Gortmore Gent
There are a couple of interesting possible links to the Hearth
Money Roll records here.
In the 1665 HMR we have a Bryen Bryen. He could be the Byren
O’ Bryen of Curraghmore mentioned in the Civil Survey.
Even more intriguingly to me is Loghlin O Hogan. In the 1666-67
HMR there is a Daniell McLoghlin. I have updated his modern surname as
McLoughlin.
McLoughlin is often associated with the North and West of
Ireland but it is still a name prominent in the area today. Could some of these
McLoughlins actually be descendants from the Hogans?

However we find that there are still O’Briens living in the
area in the 1911 census and Hogans up to the 1840s. The McLoughlin name doesn’t
carry down so the Loghlin Hogan / McLoghlin may only be a coincidence.
