3) A descendant of John Killian born 1767 PA is looking for another male line descendant to help establish baseline markers.

4) A descendant of Joseph M. Killian born 1845 in Roxbury, MA is looking for the family patriarch in Ireland.

5)  Two adopted Killian/Killion lines have been established. They are Killi*ns by heritage if not by blood.  They would like to know the surname of the family patriarch.
