Hi, Matthew Biggart Kirk was the son of James Johnston Kirk and Jane Walker. James J. Kirk was the son of Matthew Kirk and Grace Johnson. Matthew Kirk was the son of James Kirk of Ballymoney, County Antrim Ireland. The DAR Record given to Matthew Kirk's great-granddaughter giving his parents as James Kirk and Agnes Edminston was in error. Her granddaughter, a certified genealogist has research both lines and proven it was two different families. There is no record that James Kirk of Ireland ever came to this country. James J.& Jane Kirk's youngest son, Rev. William Robert Kirk wrote a simple journal giving a brief outline and history of the Kirk family. This genealogist has that original journal.
Now to Deborah Ann Kirk. She was my grandfather's baby sist er.Her marriage record to Jeff Reppond is listed as F.M. Kirk, but she was called Deborah, Debra or Debbie. Her name was probably Febura Margaret or Mary after her mother's sisters. She died about 1889 in ?Hopkins Co., TX.She and Jeff had one son, Louis Begeth Reppond who died up in the Panhandle.
I have the Kirk history back to Ireland and quite a bit on the Jones history. Deborah was the daughter of Matthew Biggart Kirk and Hulda D. R. Jones.I'll be happy to share, as others have done with me.
