An early Byrne immigrant was Moses Byrne, born in Liverpool in 1820. After joining the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, he sailed to America and founded the town of Piedmont in the southwest corner of Wyoming. While Piedmont is now a ghost town, the charcoal kilns Moses built to make charcoal for the smelters of Utah still stand and are on the National Registry of Historic Places.

Will be adding more later.
