Seeking info. about the ancestors and descendants of William Fern and his wife Mary Ann Walsh. Their son, John Fern, was my gr-grandfather, b abt 1845, Belfast, Ire., d 1909 in Boston. He mar Hannah Neilson, dau of Andrew Neilson and Janet Lachlan, on 17 Oct 1867 in Kilbirnie, Ayr, Scotland. They emigrated to New York in 1869 and settled in Boston, MA, shortly after. Their ch were: John who dy, James Alexander, William Joseph, Andrew, John, Joseph, Philip who dy, Thomas, and Hannah Elizabeth, my grandmother. On John and Hannah's mar certificate, William is listed as a police constable, deceased. I haven't been able to find William and Mary Ann in any other records. I wonder if they had other ch who have living relatives in Great Britain or the US. Please respond to my email address.
