| The Family
History Detectives This family history has been compiled to help future generations of Kirkmans answer the questions "Who am I?" "Where did my family come from?" and "Where are family members located now?" The story was pieced together by Mrs. Mary Kirkman Fischer, of College Point, Long Island, NY: Mrs. Ellen Bonn Burleson Guild, of Edmond, OK, a Kirkman descendant and avid genealogist who carried out an extensive investigation of the family in the 1970s, and Donald Christian Kirkman of Annandale, VA who researched the family in the 1990s. Important contributions were made by Gene Burleson of Edmond, OK, keeper of the family documents compiled by his mother, Ellen Bonn Burleson Guild; Mrs. Annette Kirkman Joyce of New Rochelle, NY; Charles "Bill" Kirkman of Ashuelot, NH; Mrs. Elinor Kirkman Hellmann of Van Nuys, CA; Mrs. Toni Peck-Fitts of Beverly Hills, CA; Karl Kirkman of Claremont, CA; Christian William Kirkman of Jacksonville, FL, webmaster of this web page.
