Posted on: Sangamon County, Il Query Forum Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/USA/Il/Sangamon/1779 Surname: KEIRS, BURKE ------------------------- Looking for information on the KEIRS family, namely the family of Robert William KEIRS, m.Elizabeth. They came from Scotland about 1881 and he was a coal miner. In 1924 they lived with their daughter Margaret. Other children included Robert, Bessie, John, Annie and William. One of these married or was at least with Oveta BURKE and had a son named Robert Wiliam KEIRS. I am trying to find out who that missing person is and any other information concerning Robert William and Elizabeth's decendents. Am willing to trade decendent information if I can find the son who was with Oveta BURKE.
