It would have been owned by John Chales Burns and his son Donald. I think Donald Burns managed it. J.C. Burns was from the area, and was married to a woman named Margaret Benson Burns and she grew up in Galesburg as well. She was related to Timothy Warren. Donald was married to a pretty, petite woman named Doris Andrews Burns, who was originally from New Jersey. They had two young children - Christine and Frankie. There may have been a second restaurant as well. Any info is very much appreciated. Thank you and happy new year! Keleigh "Kelly" Girnas kelgirnas@sbcglobal.net
