I am interested in anything about this family - I know there was a coal delivery business. I know of two brothers - Bill and Fred, but that is all. Anything to develop this would be great. Thanks all. FC |

replied on: 3/1/2007 10:43:36 PM Fred Dunn, who died a few years ago, was the father of Robert Dunn (of Dunnline Coaches company). I attended Fred's funeral (Aldercar St Johns) I also have the Dunns from Woodlinkin in my family tree (way back) if you require information from that far back. |
