My grandmother was a Gaynor. Her father was Edward GAYNOR. She also had a person on her side of the family that they called Mary Ann O'brien. I'm not sure how related. I'm also trying to fit in a Patrick & Edward Shannon. Do you have any Shannon's in the line you are checking. Patrick and Edward were my grandma's cousins. I know this is a far reach, but you never know.
