My g.g. grandfather was a Patrick Finnegan, whom we believe was from Templeboy, as some other (of his contemporary) Finnegans living in the same town in Wisconsin, were from there. Patrick was born in 1819 and Married Margaret Gramham while in Ireland. I believe that they left in the Spring of 1848, after having their first child, Andrew in 1847. More @Wikipedia
