Subject: [KERN-L] Re: Kern name of Irish descent?
Date: 20 Jul 2001 19:02:34 -0600
I am tracing the same family name my great great grandfather was a clerk in a penal office in Ceylon his son born in 1855 came to New Zealand and there started the New Zealand branch of Kerns. We always thought the name was Scotish or Irish but I have meet with a block wall and records are hard to find in Ceylon but it looks like the tree is either German or Dutch. Still trying to find connections. He also married a girl with the name Charlotte Harriet Christinez and I am not sure wheather she was Portugese or Indian. Any suggestions?
