Louisa (Irwin) Dehnel on 31-Dec-14
My grandfather was born in Violet Hill His name Thomas Pillsworth IRWIN, born about 1880 aprox. There must have been a large Irwin family in that area. His fathers name was Richard Irwin. Is there any way someone could send me any information about the Irwin family in that area.
