Simon,
Thank you very much. I did get your message and sent you are reply. I guess forums are new to me and I am not doing something correctly.
I will answer again. William's father was Peter Cummins spelled without the g. Again Peter's name was spelled with a g. Who knows!
Margaret Kenny's father was William.
William came from 44 Bow Lane and Margaret from 4 Bedford St.
When they married they lived on 11 Bedford ST.
We have never heard of Jane, but intend to find out if she is a missing sister.
William, born 1846, came to the USA in 1867 or 1868. He settled in Philadelphia, Pa and a was a machinists. Not sure of the date or ship. It may be the City of Baltimore.
Peter, his brother, came to the USA in 1868 on the City of Boston. He settled with his brother in Philadelphia, Pa. I am certain of this one.
They lived together for a time, married had 13 kids between them and the rest is history.
I do appreciate all you do.
Bill
