This is the family that is there 1911
http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Londonderry/Slaght/Dunnavenny/591480/

This is son John married in 1911
http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Londonderry/Slaght/Dunnavenny/591479/

Could Michael and Catherine the daughter leave after 1901 for America as I can't find Michael death.

Not sure this chap is from the area you were researching but will list him since it is similar surname to your research Kernan/Mckernan/McKiernan - he was on the same passenger list. (

There is also a John McKiernan aged 19 years on this passenger list - aged 19 years - farm labourer - Ballinamore  - father Pat McKiernan - going to Chicago Illinois.

Hi Sandra,
Yes its strange no birth coming up.  Catherine is recorded as born on the 12 July 1878  on her death certificate.

I can't find the link to upload it here

Thanks for all your help

Its not surprising the birth record isn't showing but if the marriage was in New York it might turn up eventually. Catherine and James are well documented on census etc.....
