Hi, I am relatively new to these Message Boards but if people will put the City or county and definitely the State it would really help to answer some of the inquiries.

It's hard to find since it is now literally a "ghost town". Also within the 1870 Census of the area is riddled with misspellings and use of common names such as "Andy" rather than "Andrew". It almost forces you to read through the entire census listing. Hope this helps Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Hello BURKE cousins! Since BURKE is one of the most common Irish surnames in the USA, and the common/oft-repeated given names, it's amazing that we can ever trace our ancestors! There are two factors that help me to identify that a "found" BURKE is in fact mine: l) street address: This has confirmed my ancestors more than any other factor. 2) family clusters: We rely on this, especially with census records. Searching for the most unusual given name, often lead us to the family unit. Yesterday at the NYC Municipal Archives I found the DC of my orphaned grandfather's father and the BC of his only older sibling, who never went to the orphanage. Voila! It was the street addresses on each that confirmed these BURKEs are mine! I am so grateful to the NYC metro area's German Genealogy Group (http://www.GermanGenealogyGroup.com) and Italian Genealogy Group (italiangen.org) for their diligent and tedious hours transcribing vital records. These led me to my ancestors. I am also grateful that my folks are still alive and cognizant to appreciate what these certificates tell. Now, with my g-grandfather's actual burial date, I await the interment list from Calvary Cemetery, Queens NYC, possibly "home" to more deceased than any other. So, BURKE cousins, don't give up, give in, or forget what you're after. I know you'll find it. Barb ************************************** AOL now offers free email to everyone.

Hi Margaret Like you I have been researching my ancestors in Ireland for years. All I can tell you there just may, may? be a connection. My gt grandmother in New Zealand was Johanna (h) Linehan or Lenihan and in New Zealand she married Martin Burke whose father was also Patrick Burke farmer from Clare. Other siblings came to NZ from 1878 and also settled In Napier area and they were Patrick Burkeand Mary BURKE There was also a sister who went to America but do not know if she was a Linehan or a Burke and she went to Brooklyn first?
