Larissa, I think I might have found out about the Quinn surname being in our family tree. My mom had a cousin named Joseph Jackson. Joseph's wife was named Mary Wills. Mary had several brothers and sisters. I think one of her sisters married into the Quinn family. I will have to do more research on this to be sure since I am putting together information that I found.
