Michael Hennessy & his aunt Mrs J.A. Heffernan (sister of Frank Hennessy)
« on: Sunday 11 September 16 04:56 BST (UK) »
Hi,
Looking to hopefully find more information related to obituary for relatives of Frank Hennessy...in particular with respect to his son Michael and a sister whose married name is apparently Heffernan.

From the 1955 obituary it reads...Francis Joseph Hennessy, beloved husband of Bertha Rossiter, and dear father of Michael (died ??)and Dorothy (died 1982)...brother of Mrs. J A. Heffernan

http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GSln=hennessy&GSfn=frank&GSiman=1&GScid=639447&GRid=103905584&

Unfortunately no knowledge of sister's first name (possibly Helen?) or even if she was also a Montreal (area) resident. Can only assume Michael also lived in the Montreal area. His sister Dorothy is buried with her father upon her passing in 1982. Buried at Notre Dames Des Neiges Cemetery.

In the same cemetery:

It's a good fit with her husband having the same initials as the obit.

There is a marriage in the Drouin Collection for Sarah Hennessy, daughter of Patrick Hennessy and Sarah Dolan to Joseph Alexander Heffernan, son of Thomas Heffernan and Ellen Murrow(? - I think that is what it says) on 20 Sep 1910.
