Origin of Junkins Family Groups in North America

Details

In order to keep my sanity and to provide some organization to researchers and genealogists, I have created this report of Junkin(s) family groups who have emigrated to North America. Though this is not comprehensive, and in the 200-350 years that Junkins have left their various home lands and built families in the New World, Junkins' have spread across the continent. As we connect with each other and discover cousins through online research and DNA matching, we find that we don't necessarily have mutual ancestors. Some come from Ireland, some from Scotland and some from France. As I learn more I will update this page.

 

Legend, point of initial settlement: ME. = Maine, CA. = Canada, PA. = Pennsylvania,
SC. = South Carolina, MS. = Mississippi

Ann Hathaway Cheney passes

Details

It is with a heavy heart that I let you know Ann Cheney has passed away.

Anne has been the Vice President of the Junkins Family Association since 2008.
For the JFA, she has handled membership, keeping track of our members and
sending out renewals each year. She's recently published the JFA newsletter.

As a friend she has spent time with us both at family reunions and otherwise,
sharing her love for food, genealogy, and quilting.

She will be greatly missed.
