Posted on: Burk, Burke, Birk ~ Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/surnames/bur/Burk/107 Surname: Burke, Depenhart, Baker, Wagner, Rhein, Fisher ------------------------- Hi All, I am looking for the Burke family of Pittsburg, PA. My gr gr grandfather was Thomas Burke, he had a brother named Martin who was murdered in East Liberty Pittsburg during prohibition, apparently they were bootlegging. This family had money, they owned the first movie house in Pittsburg as well as a resturant/bar I believe was called the "New Era" Thomas had a daughter Mary who was born in 1902 and married a man named Aloysius Baker who had changed the family name from either Petcher or Becker. Any info greatly appreciated! Shelly ==== BURK Mailing List ==== NOTICE !!!!
