I would think birth information for his brother, Martin, would be the same location. The above death announcement mentions a cousin, John Kerwin, so this adds new surname to the family. The Kerwin family is shown with the Higgins family in 1880 San Francisco, Co., CA census records. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
