The Guhin - Kegley connection began with the marriage of Dion Patrick Guhin and Sheila Ann Kegley in September 2002, in the State of Colorado.. Dion being born in 1959 in Upstate New York, in the Finger Lakes area, Has Irish and German ties from his father's side, and British from his mother's side. Sheila being born in 1959 in the Twin City area of Minnesota. Has German and British from her father, and Scandinavian from her mother's side.. Dion's GGGF Timothy Guhin, and his wife Mary Cavanaugh, emigrated from the Dingle bay Area of Ireland around 1840, settled in Manitowoc County Wisconsin, whith his GF John James Guhin Jr. re-settling in Ononadogo County of New York. Timothy and Mary are my dead ends on the Guhin Side. Would appreciate any and all further information.. Dion is also a direct cousin of Spencer B. Tracy 1900 - 1962, the Actor.. Dion's mother Bessie E.(Harris) Guhin's family settled in the Section of Virginia which later became West Virginia. Bessie has Family ties all the way back to the Royalty of England, Wales, Scotland, France, as well as many other European Countrys.. Sheila's father's Family name settled in Wythe County Virginia.. Her GGGGGF being Christian Kegley, husband of Catherine Leedy. Her GGF Samuel Finley Kegley's wife Ella May Whinston, is a Mayflower Decendant, and has many historical connections to Bristol, Connecticut.. Her Mother was Loujean Nila Nelson, with this line, she is related to most Nelson's and Johnson's from Blue Earth County in Minnesota. With ancestral ties to Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. And finding it very hard to find further information.. As the Family Researcher, I have been working my line for the past 25 years.. I began Dion's in 2002.. I am always looking in order to fill gaps, and add new information I was hoping to have things compeleted by September 2004, to complete my book "250 Years of Kegley's in America.. the Decendants of John George Kegley "Geockle" 1742 - 1830.. At this time I have 3 file drawerd full of Family group sheets of John's decendants. Yet I still have a lot of gaps to fill. I have many missing person's. Or lost links.. if you have any additional information to help either of these lines, please feel free to contact me, at saguhin2002@yahoo.com. I will be updating an address, as to keep my personal seperated from Family Histoy.. Thank you Sincerely Sheila Ann Kegley Guhin
