    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Burke, Rounds Classification: Biography Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/RkG.2ACEB/3039 Message Board Post: Per census one Nellie Burke is born Feb 1879 and has parents of Jeff (perhaps Jeffery or Jeffrey) Burke who immigrated from Ireland. I see a wife, also from Ireland. Her first name is Ellen. I see WFT entry info but am suspicious of accuracy. I believe they had, perhaps, as many as ten children, or more. I think it extremely likely that one of these children may have been one John Thomas Burke b 18 Jan 1873 in Nebraska (probably Omaha) and who worked as steam engine engineer for UPRR out of Utah and on RR heading east to Denver, etc. He was Catholic, lived in Utah, and married to a Caroline Rounds in my family. I have photo which has him in it, wishing to compare with others who may have additional information and photos, or bible records. I see other entries (including a couple of errors) in WFT so asking via this format what can you share ?
