Title: Denis Kenny
Post by: PiersHenderson on Tuesday 12 November 13 21:57 GMT (UK)

Is there anyone here that has any information on my Kenny link?
I know it's a long shot, but it's worth a shot.
My Great-Grandfather was Denis Kenny b. 26th September 1884 in Toomevara. Denis moved to England at the age of 17 to look for work. He went on to marry Florence Miles in 1915. Denis's parents were Michael Kenny and Mary Ann Hogan, they married 26th October 1869 in Toomevara.

Are there any distant relatives out there?

Hi and welcome to Rootschat

Is this Denis and his siblings on the 1901 Irish census

Yes, that's the correct family. Do you know anything about the Kenny family?

Sorry - no connection.  I can see an entry for Dennis Kenny on the Welsh 1911 census index living in Radnorshire.  I see he married Florence in Hereford

Rootschat does not allow us to post 1911 details so you would have to view the entry yourself
