KENNING. George William Barras
« on: Saturday 14 July 12 03:06 BST (UK) »
Greetings from New Zealand!  George married Mary THOMPSON 18.5.1875 in Morpeth. Their daughter - Sarah Thompson KENNING (my grandmother, who married William Robinson GLEESON here in NZ) was born in Bebside abt 1880. I think there were more children too. All/some emmigrated to ?Australia and some came on to NZ. I'd love to find out more about the Thompsons and Kennings.
Any help/suggestions appreciated!
