To Summerssnow bear I have Kearns relatives from Mayo. They were from Castlebar, Keelkill, Breaghy. My great grandmother- Mary Kennedy- was married to James Kearns sometime before 1848.They had 3 children, Patrick, Mary Ann and James. Patrick and Mary Ann emigrated to Cleveland , Ohio around 1858. James senior died around 1856 and Mary Kearns married John Burke in 1858. They had 3 children, including my grandmother, Margaret Burke O'Donnell. Mary Burke and her 3 Burke children emigrated to Cleveland in 1881. Any connection? gc-gateway@rootsweb.com wrote: > This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. > > Author: Summersnowbear > Surnames: > Classification: queries > > Message Board URL: > > http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.britisles.ireland.may.general/7532.2/mb.ashx > > Message Board Post: > > I also am a Kearns decendent.
