I have traced back to Patrick Burk 1812-1871 married to Martha Colwell. He was born in Ireland. He was the son of W-Patrick Burk and Martha. This is as far as I’ve been able to get would appreciate any help. I know that William de Burgh was the start of the Burgos (Burkes) in Ireland but can’t find any further ties for Patrick Burk. Thanks for any help. My grandmother was Kate Burke.
Emmett Williams - in response, this is the info I find on Patrick Burke born 1812 in County Cork, IR. Died 15 Oct 1871 and buried at Liberty Hill Primitive Baptist Church Cemetery in Lamar, GA. Marred to Martha Colwell born 23 July 1822 in Pike, GA and died 2 Oct 1904. She is buried at Liberty Hill Cemetery also. Eight known children: Mary Elizabeth 1840-1923, John Thomas 1844-1916, David Garr 1846-1918, William Patrick 1849-1906, Sarah Ann 1851-1925, James 1852-U, Martha Jane 1856-U, and Henry Jackson 1862-1936.
I did not check on Kate Burke, but I can. If I find anything, will respond.
