Hi - saw you online in Genealogy Wise. Also noted your BYRNE surname. My great great grandfather was James Byrne b. 1817. He was married to Catherine O'Broderick. I believe they were from Wexford. Any connection? They came to the US about 1845 and settled first in the Boston area and eventually made it to Syracuse NY. My great grand parents were James C Byrne 1842-1934 and Margaret Ford. Documented placed they lived were Worcester MA, Syracuse NY and Cazenovia NY. The man kept the Byrne spelling as did his son James. The rest of his kids spelled it Burns. Any connection?
