Book excerpt: The Curtin family originated in Ireland and was originally called MacCairteain. Laurence Curtin (ca. 1801-1894) was born in Knockbrack, County Limerick, Ireland. He married Mary Cotter and was the father of six children, one of whom was Cornelius C. Curtin (1843-1930). In about 1866 Cornelius immigrated to America and moved with another brother to Illinois. In 1874 he married Sarah M. Molohon (1857-1937) and they were the parents of ten children. Descendants live in Illinois and other parts of the United States.
