Hello list I and at least 5 other Spearin and variant spellings of the surname are researching our family tree. We are researchers from Dublin and Limerick Ireland and NJ US, NSW Australia, Ontaria Canada. We have started a surname project and all who are researching this name are welcome to join us. You can meet us here http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~spearin/Index.html Our branch of the family started in Limerick but probably arrived in Limerick Ireland from London England. We would be very glad to meet other Spearins who are researching family. We also have a rootsweb mailing list under the Spearin surname
