I do have the birth certificate for him but am stumped on his grandparents. It is strange how many of that name were around and think it might be religion related. My John was raised Catholic but shunned that religion all his life after mistreatment by the nuns.Both his parents are supposed to be buried in ST. Columban's cemetery in Cornwall On. although I have not been there to find it yet. This family ended up in Sault Ste. Marie Ontario if that helps any and you find a common denominator. I do recall that one of John's children married a Hird/Heard ( William, I believe) though and will talk to my mother and see where they came from.
