Hi Melanie,
You've traced Berwicks back to the early 1800s, so I'm wondering if you have this one:
I have an Esther Berwick of Dundee, Scotland born in the early 1800s.
She's my gg grandmother and married Joseph Sheridan (b. 1800, Dublin, Irleand).
They had three children William Joseph (m. Jane Kennedy and had 11 children), Catherine (m. Oliver Nielan - no children) and Josephine who died young.
However, their son William Joseph (m. Jane Kennedy) went on to have 11 children;
Margaret (m. John Keetley, Glasgow), Patrick (m. Mary Fiedler, Lancs), Josephine (m. John Hernon, Kildare in about 1906), Jane (m. Arthur Goodyear Sr, Kildare), William (m Alice Doyle, Manchester), Sarah Anne (became Sister Benignus and migrated to Texas), John (killed in action. WWI), Esther (m. John Berns, Kildare),Marie (died 1950), Catherine (twin who m. Patrick J Hand), Michael (twin who m. Catherine Mc D(??)).
Children and grandchildren of these 11 live/lived in England, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and USA.
Any bells ringing?
Best wishes,
Josephine Hernon Fraser
