Keirstin,
Your grandfather's name was Franics Emil Barnish.His father's name was Peter Barnish who was married to Elmire Arcand.His father's name was Francis Barnish, the one mentioned in the S. Deerfield Mass post on this page. They all lived in Souther Deerfield and the census said they came from Canada.I could trace them in the US back until 1850 but not before that.Most of them I believe were listed as farmers.Your Aunt Del is Peter's daughter too. Her full name is Delia Marie Antoinette.That name, Delia shows up several times in census records from S. Deerfield so is most likely she was named after a relative.That should get you started and perhaps the guy here on the list can give you more information.All this was in a family bible.What we don't know is who "Cilamo" was who is also listed.
Your mom ;)
