The Kearns Line

      Send me information (dob, dod etc) for this side of the family and I will enter it. A number of years ago one of Rhett and Carmie’s sons sent me a brief email but when I contacted him for info he never wrote me back. All information I have on Rhett Kearns’ background is posted.
