About the Project

The Digan Name Study project serves as a collaborative platform to collect information on the Digan name. The hope is that other researchers like you will join the study to help make it a valuable reference point for other genealogists who are researching or have an interest in the Digan name.

As a One Name Study, this project is not limited to persons who are related biologically. Individual studies can be used to branch out the research into specific methods and areas of interest, such as geographically (England Digan's), by time period (18th Century Digan's), or by topic (Digan DNA, Digan Occupations, Digan Statistics). These studies may also include a number of family branches which have no immediate link with each other. Some researchers may even be motivated to go beyond the profile identification and research stage to compile fully sourced, single-family histories of some of the families they discover through this name study project.

My Grandmother was born a Digan, in Tullamore, County Offaly. She married a John Kelly and they later moved to Bagenalstown, County Carlow, I remember her very well (she died when I was 19) and she was always a very devout Catholic. She actually LEFT her husband in Ireland and moved to London with her oldest sons and my Father (her youngest) when he was 13. I always admired her for that.. very forward thinking in those days! Apparently my Grandfather was a violent man. I went to Ireland in 2007 to try to track down some ancestors and found the Genealogy Centre at Tullamore. They were very helpful and it was there I found there are several mis-spelling of the Digan surname.

I added your group to the surname as it appears to be a variation from the research I have done with distant cousins.
