Marcia: No problem - didn't want to butt in if it was directed to someone in particular. My John Burns came from Ireland around 1832-35 and by 1854 had settled in Atlanta, Logan Co., Ill. He was m. to Mary Ann Kelly and both were b. 1820. She was from Shannon, Ireland but don't know where in Ireland he was from. Marilyn - Fla.
