Hey Linda, Always enjoy your posts. Hope you didn't have too much snow to drive in on your way to your sister's... Anyways, what do you know of the STINSONs from Ireland? Is this an SI surname? My great grandmother, Sarah M. STINSON, was purportedly born about June 1830 in Belfast, Antrim. (I don't know anything else about her ancestors or siblings, so obviously I'm not ready to jump the pond. When she emigrated, she went to Hamilton, Canada, married, then eventually settled in Michigan.) Any insight would be appreciated.
