Title: JAMES KENNEDY
Post by: erin21 on Wednesday 10 May 06 19:20 BST (UK)
I am searching for any information about James Kennedy born Queens County 1841. This is all the information I have at present. He was living in Manchester UK in 1881 age 40.

If anyone can help I will be most grateful or if anyone could point me to any useful sites.

Many thanks
 Erin

Hello Erin21;

I have searched several search engines's but to no avail for your James Kennedy.
I have records of 90 cemeteries in Laois, all records from headstones, ans came across a few Kennedys, they do not go back far enough, but may give you some guideline.

Hello Ian

No unfortunately there are too many JameS Kennedys born in Manchester in 1876/1877 All I do know is in 1901 he was living  at 6 Wellington Street Gorton and his age was given as 25yrs.

Ian hope I havent confused you there. The man James Kennedy born 1876/77 is  the person who I have not been able to get the bC for to find out his fathr and mothers details because there are a few James kennedys born in Manchester 1876/77. I understand his father was James also and from ireland. Hope you understand !!!

Did you use the head of household field when searching the 1881 census then you can look for a Jas K head of household with a son Jas K born 1877+/- 2 and get this household - is this him?
