William Hannan b. Dec. 12, 1850, NY
I am looking for information on the parents of William Hannan born December 3, 1850 in Columbia Co., NY (according to his death certificate) and died February 10, 1925 in Versailles, Darke Co., Ohio. He married Rebecca Fissel on January 2, 1872. His death certificate lists parents as William Hannan and Jennie(can't read last name) both born in Ireland.Older relatives thought the father's name was John instead of William as listed on the death certificate.
Family legend says that the father (William/John) was excommunicated from the Catholic Church for marrying when the eldest son was required to become a priest. I don't have any information about this line other than what is found on the copy of William's death certificate. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
