Hello Nancy,

I was astounded to finally find a person researching BURNS of Ashland Co., OH!

I have a Florence BURNS but married to a Longacre.

My husband's ancestors were:

Peter Burns wife Mary Horn
Emanuel Burns wife Delilah Russell
Elizabeth Burns husband Daniel A. Myers
Margaret Oma Myers husband Charles Emerson Nodine
Lula May Nodine husband Howard C. Bonham
Danial C. Bonham wife me, Barbara Anne Farthing

Any conenctions?

Thanks,

Barbara
