Kane Family

I have had something of a breakthrough regarding the Kane Family. My great-grandparents were Daniel and Sarah (Keane/Kane) Kilcommons of Wilkes-Barre. Pa. Their daughter Margaret married George Brohan. The witness at his naturalization on 21 February 1905 in New York was Patrick F. Kane of 65 Spring St., New York. He most likely was a relative. A quick search did not turn anything up, but at least I have a definite name and place to start from.

DNA results

Through DNA testing, I did connect with a Curley family in Cincinnati, Ohio. They trace back to Co. Roscommon. Now I have to start with their ancestor and see if, working forward, I can find my grandfather.
