GUNN / GINN Just sending the above as I couldn't help wondering if the Gunn should have been a Ginn. We are searching for Thomas Ginn who lived in the Back Cove area. Trying to verify if he was born in England and sailed to Newfoundland. Helen Ginn
GINN Thomas GUNN should be spelled GINN. He is my great great grandfather. Roy Ginn
