This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.

The 1920 Census has my grandparents Agnes Elizabeth Kearns Stafford and Noah Earl Stafford living in Akron with their two sons Bernard and Clarence. Agnes Elizabeth died at 27 and eventually Noah Earl Stafford returned to WV. Agnes's siblings settled in the Toronto OH area. Family lines include Ferguson, Blake, Cavinough, Stafford, all derivatives of Kerns/Cairns. Kearns Family ancestry is usually attributed to Scotland pre 1870? I'd welcome hearing from anyone.
