You may have the right Connection. Ernest E. Commins was my Father I don't know if this was his Mother and Father are not? but think it is. I will ask my Mother if this info is right. I was told that my Dads parents died when he was very young and the family was split up.I think he had two brother's but I'm not sure of that, but he had one sister I know because I met her once, her name was Minny {Commins} Stark and she had one dauther name Francis Stark, at that time they lived in the Southern part of MI. That was about 35 years ago, I was 13 when my older brother James and I visited Minny and Francis.
Are you kin to the Commins? If you have more info. would like to hear from you. Thanks for your time, Darrell
