Hi Jean I'm still collecting information on the Kearns clan, from what I can see at the moment my Great Grandmother ADA VICTORIA KEARNS born 1880 had three siblings that I have found so far-: Albert Richard born 1875, Ann Matilda born 1876 and William Henry born 1878 (all in Bathurst or around that area). There may have been others but I'm not sure at the moment. Richard died in 1883 and is buried in St. Patricks Parramatta. I found two siblings at least for Richard they are Robert b 1850 and George born 1844. George is listed on Richards death certificate as being a witness. I found one George KERNS marrying a Mary Ann Wilson in Hill End in 1882. That's about all I have at the moment All the best Dianna --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
