Notes for Vincent DePaul Callaghan: This Callahan/ Callaghan Family has been researched in memory of my deceased brother-in-law, Terance Eugene Callahan, for his children. Many thanks to the Callahan Family for sharing their information.
Note: The name Vincent Depaul Callahan was given to me by his great granddaughter. Could she have been mistaken, possibly. However, we have found a record to verify what we were told. See below under the World War II Draft Registration. (Another non-family researcher publicly posted that we were incorrect and his name was not Vincent Depaul Callahan. In fact she stated, there was another Vincent DePaul Callahan in the same area around the same time and we were confused. Guess we weren't the only parties confused.)
