Post by: matron123 on Tuesday 21 November 17 09:22 GMT (UK)
Hello, I am looking for a John Kennedy and an Ellen Fogarty, I have no dates for them but they had a son Patrick Kennedy born 1857 in Kilkenny Ireland. If possible I would like their marriage date and if there were more children. Patrick later moved to Yorkshire
Thank you

Hello,

You don’t say where they moved to in Yorkshire so this is just speculation.
1901 census shows Patrick Kennedy b 1857 Kilkenny in Leeds with wife, Annie.
 Is this your man?

There are several children, the older ones show as born in Kilkenny.

The various children show mother as Dunphy and all fit with a marriage in 1874 - Patrick Kennedy and Anne Dunphy and births in Kilkenny plus Patrick’s occupation of Tailor.

This would perhaps not fit with the birth which Maggsie has sent by pm and even if it were 1857, it is still young for a marriage in 1874.

You may already have all that information and I won’t post any links yet for that reason or that I may have the wrong family.
