Found a few interesting facts: Marrinan's as of 1989 had a life expectancy of about 84 years versus the general public of 75 years.
There have been 20 people emigrate to the United States with the last name of Marrinan, only 12 of them from Ireland, 3 Great Briton, 3 England, 1 Tirol (it is now part of Germany if I looked it up correctly) and 1 from Nova Scotia.
The Marrinan's traveled through the following ports to the US. Liverpool and Queenstown Ireland (must not have been any direct flights); Liverpool; Antwerp; Rotterdam; Havana; Verea Cruz, Mexico; others.
Upon emigration Marrinan's tended to be farmers, house keepers, grocers, and laborers.
About 30 States have a Marrinan in residence. WI, OH, NY, and CT have between 6 and 10 Marrinan families each.
The first Marrinan appears to have arrived in the United States in 1854. This may or may not be the same John Marrinan talked about earlier on East Bacon Street. John clearly was a very popular name for a Marrinan.
There was a John Marrinan born in 1836 that lived in Preble County according to the 1920 census. The timing makes it very possible that he was one of the first.
John "Jack" Marrinan, son of "Leo," has mentioned the Marrinan family in Preble County. Our knowledge of "relative" John Marrinan includes birth around Ennistymon, County Clare, in 1837. John Marrinan's year of birth probably does not represent an accurate recording. The range is from 1835 based on the 1880 census to 1845 based on his age on the 1920 census.
John Marrinan died in 1924 at New Paris. His body was interred at St. John's Catholic Cemetery, and according to "Jack" Marrinan, "a place of many Marrinan tombstones."
