2nd marriage Wolfenden Kenny (1780 Queens Ireland - 1857 London)
« on: Monday 13 July 15 17:26 BST (UK) »
Wolfenden's first wife, Mary Kettle, died 8 Feb 1812 listed as Hackney Rd. They had been married Marylebone in 1805 and had 4 children - 1807 Charlotte Mary - St Marylebone; 1808 Anna Beaumont in Ireland; 1810 Wolfenden - St Leonard, Shoreditch; and Edward 1812 - 4 days before his mother's death. He was baptised in 1812 March St Mary Lewisham.

In 1816 a child named Mary born Clerkenwell St James - mother listed as Sarah.
A further 6 children born 1818 William,1820 Robert,1825 Frances, 1827 Frederick, 1829 Charles and 1832 Griffith Richard Kenny, all Baptisms list mother as Mary. - all Clerkenwell St James.

I believe the reference to Sarah is a transcription type error. Either way, I can find no reference to a 2nd/3rd marriage for Wolfenden Kenny - have tried posting on the Ireland board in case he returned to Ireland to marry - but so far no luck there either.

Any help greatly appreciatied. By the way where is/was Clerkenwell St James in London?!
Many thanks
B

Just to answer your last query - Mr Google has details, and photographs of St James, Clerkenwell, together with its location  ;D  AND it's still in existence.

Transcriptions and NBI are merely finding aids.  They are NOT a substitute for original record entries.
Remember - "They'll be found when they want to be found" !!!
If you don't ask the question, you won't get an answer.

If you do need to start a new topic then it's best to post a link to earlier ones to avoid duplication.

Thank you for doing that - now I know! No doubt there's somewhere on site that explains how to post a link.

And thanks, BumbleB for the London info - now I have a much better understanding of the area at that time.
