I can't see a birth anywhere for a Kenneth McKinney- wonder if he would be registered under another name?

Forget the Rose lady.
In Griffiths Valuation there is one McKinney

So Margaret isn't Kenneth's mother.

Looks like Samuel died 1917

Of the images viewable I don't see a death for his first wife in Magherafelt, there is a Mary with husband Samuel but that is a different couple.
