    Hi, Margaret, Robert and Jered

    I'm descended from Mary Ann Roberts, daughter of James Roberts and Rachel Barry. Her first husband was Walter Burns and I am descended from their oldest son Walter Burns who married Elizabeth Dougherty. Mary Ann, when widowed, married the next door neighbour's son James Skiffington, who was younger than her. Does anyone know how many children Mary Ann and James Skiffington had?

    Nancy, I've put a quick family tree for Mary's line(s) online. Some entries will display as private and I'm not sure how to change that right now, but you'll have a good idea of how many descended from Mary from both marriages. If you click the little blue/pink boxes connected to her "bubble" it will expand out to show her Burns and Skiffington marriages. If you send me your email address I can provide more detail than what I managed to put online so far.

    Here's the link to Mary's tree: http://www.myheritage.com/site-family-tree-245937741/seward#
