I am searching for information on the following names McKirahan, Burkey, Freeman

My Grandparents were Fred McKirahan & Mildred Freeman McKirahan.

Here is what I know:

My father (also Fred McKirahan) was raised in an orphanage with his brothers and sisters in Cambridge, Ohio.

They are as follows:

Harry Carlos McKirahan
Juanita McKirahan Ponn
Verna McKirahan Ogle
Elmer McKirahan

My Grandfather was born in 1894 and passed away on Jan 16, 1955. He was living in Akron, Ohio at the time.

In the early 1930's he worked for the railroad in Akron, Ohio.

His Mother's name (My G-Grandmother) was Lou Burkey. She passed away in 1946. Lou had another son named William 'Bill' Burkey who passed away on July 30, 1942 he was 53 years old. Willilam wife's first name was Mary.

My grandmother (Mildred Freeman) was born around (Byesville, or Derwent OH) in 1896 and passed away in 1970.

Most of my relatives are buried in the Northwood Cemetery in Cambridge, Ohio.
