Notes by Terri Vance:
I found a letter that my grandmother, Florence Elizabeth (nee Williams) Vance and her cousin, Dr. Henry Clyde Werts, typed up on August 20, 1950 in Los Angeles. The letter was titled Quinlans. It was the key to discovering my Quinlan roots.
The letter begins...
"Jeremiah Quinlan and his wife and family left Ireland and settled in Canada near Walkerton about 1853. Then left Canada and settled in Kansas U.S.A, near St. Mary's, about 1867. Leaving part of the Family in Canada."
In the Quinlan letter the following are listed as Jeremiah and Bridget Quinlan's children:
Tom, Patrick, Bridget, Katie, William, Ellen, Julia, Mary
