Hi! I have checked all the records I have for the McKernan family but unfortunately, your James doesn't seem to fit in with any of the records. Edward and his brothers were born in the late 1820s and early thirties. It is believed that they were originally from Leitrim and Longford. In 1901 (Census) three brothers - John (68), Edward (68 also) and Robert (74) lived in Auhnakelly Swanlinbar. Your James would have been 41 at the time so would not necessarily have still been living in Aughnakelly at the time. Sorry I can't be of any more help to you. By the way, if you are consulting the 1901/1911 census - the spelling is -'Aghnucally Tiercahoin,Cavan'. - the complications of the Irish language!
