Thanks Patrick Myron for insight into ancient history. Granted I would appreciate knowing how the Myrons, Myrins, Mirons etc.. ended up in Ireland ? Interestingly enough a local University Researcher here in Newfoundland suggested the name was of Russian origin. I kind of "fu-pawed" that, because I knew my ancestors came from County Carlow, Ireland.....(His grave stone states him to be a native of Kilcumney, County Carlow, Ireland. Likewise his wife Ann (nee Kinsella is native to Bagenalstown, County Carlow, Ireland.
