  • Notes 
    • John's family name in Carrive, Co Armagh, was spelt "Burns". Over the years John adopted the "Byrnes" spelling - being that of his wife Bessie Byrnes.
      "John was born on 2 July1865 and Elizabeth was born on 30 October 1867. They moved to Barrow-in -Furness in the 1890's. Peter Sherry, their eldest grandchild use to tease his mother by saying they eloped to England to marry and she got quite annoyed. In fact we have found out that they did not get married until 4 June 1901 when they already had two children Mary Elizabeth and Margaret. The ceremony took place in St Mary's Church, Barrow-in -Furness and they were staying at 2C Tay Street at the time. There is a possibility that they left Ireland because Elizabeth was pregnant but this is only conjecture. John was a labourer in the Ironworks in Barrow. They had five children" (notes by Paul Byrnes b 1975).
