The Durkin family from Newark, NJ
I am just starting a family tree for my son who was just born in January. My great-aunt, Marie Durkin is still alive & has just turned 90, I believe. She lived in Newark, NJ her whole life. She had 3 brothers, James Durkin (my grandfather) he died in 1987 in NYC, a brother Edward (Duke) Durkin, He died in the 1980's in Newark, NJ, and another brother, Jack Durkin who died in the early 2000's in Florida. I never knew James, my grandfather, he left my grandmother, Dorothy Gaffney, before I was born. But he had 2 other daughters daughter after he left my grandmother, I don't know their names, but would love to get some information on anything regarding this side of my family. My grandfather, James had 3 children with Dorothy...James, Edward, and my mother, Catherine. They were all born in the Newark, NJ area. Edward died in April 1987. Any information would be greatly appreciated!
