Gallen Family
Rose Gallen Corcoran and Charles Gallen, Jr.->
<- Rose Gallen Corcoran, May Dougherty Gallen and friend
Charles and Anna Quinn Gallen m. 1886 in Philadelphia. Charles worked for the Philadelphia Transportation Company. He was naturalized a citizen on October 5, 1878 in Philadelphia, stating that he came from Ireland. On November 4, 1879 Judge of Elections F. Edward Harris signed the citizenship paper stating that Charles had voted that day. Still searching for where in Ireland he was from, suspect County Tyrone near Strabane.
