Still trying to find Lolabell Burke, daug. of Clarence and Jessie Burke, Jackson Mich., born abt 1928. My trail ended in Chicago in 1950. She was listed as residing in Chicago in Our grandmother's obit.,. I tried the County Clerk for a marriage licence search from 1950 thru 1959. No luck. Maybe she moved before marrying? Thanks for all you past help. Darold Carlin
Jim...John Burk settled in Clinton Co Ohio in 1830. The book, "Early History of Clinton Co Ohio",which I found in the Wilmington Clinton Co Ohio Library, listed his name as spelled Burk. The 1850 and subsequent census's of Clinton Co Ohio, lists this John Burk as John Burke. So, if I make referance to Burk, I really am using Burke. Maybe I should unsubscribe from Burk and subscribe to Burke since that is the name that my family has used since the early 1800's. Please advise. I'm sorry to cause all these problem's, I'm no computer wizz, just a 72 year old man who want's to work on my Burk Family history. Thank You......

Have you tried looking in city directories for your Mary Flynn in New York. Probably the NY Public Library or the Historical Society have directories. You could also try the archives at Ellis Island, where she likely entered the country after her trip from Ireland. I don't have contact information for you, but you should be able to find phone numbers or addresses on the internet. Good luck! __________________________________ Sarah L.

Dear Burke List, My mother in law is one of the few remaining Orphan Train Riders. She was born "Baby Girl Flynn" on Sept. 23, 1915 to an unwed mother and sent out west on the Orphan Train from the NY Foundling Home. Her mother's name on the birth cert. is Mary Flynn, born in Ireland around 1895 and was living at 799 Lexington Ave., NY, NY. Now here's where you guys come in. The New York State Census for 1915 lists a Dr. Richard F. BURKE & family living at that address. Mary Flynn is not listed but the census was taken June 1st so she may have moved in sometime between June & September. Other members of the Burke family listed are: Sister, Eleanor, age 45 Daughter, Alice, age 22 Son, Wallace, age 11 Lodger, Morris Davidson age, 17 I know this is a long shot. Mary Flynn may have just been a border or Dr Burke may have taken in many unwed mothers needing help. But it's also possible there is a family connection and contacting any member of this Burke family may give us the clue we need to find my mother in law's family. She is 86 this year and her fondest wish is to find out if she has or had siblings or nephews and nieces. I'd like to make that wish come true. Thank you for any help, Susan
Pricia, I would love to see what Burkes, Burks, you have. I am looking for the parents of a James Burk, born in May 1842 in Kentucky, married Elizabeth Smith, born July 1847. These people are my G-Grandparents Joyce.

Posted on: Burk, Burke, Birk ~ Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/surnames/bur/Burk/140 Surname: Griffith - Burk ------------------------- I found Griffith's back in the Burke family in VA, and maybe in WVA and NC. I think that is not a real common name to me and the fact that we don't know where our James Burk b. 1759 came from or who his parents were, it intrigues me. I have just about completed back my line back to James but not beyond. Peggy Batterton ==== BURK Mailing List ==== REMINDER ! ! !

Researching Burke family in Genesee Co, Orleans Co, NY 1860s-1930s. Anyone else?
I am looking for information on Micajah Major BURKE. He was born 1804 in Virginia ?. His father is suppose to be John BURKE who was born abt 1778 maybe in Ireland. Micajah ended up in Macon Co., IL.
