I was raised in central Michigan.My great grandfather was Julius Caesar Conkling, who is buried in Shepherd, Michigan cemetery.He had a brother B. Conkling.The "g" was dropped because of postalconfusiion with another Conkling branch.. It was family tradition that we had come from Ireland.,but I had not heard the story of the name origin.Thank you.
