Would anyone have access to the Cyclopedia of Canadian Biography Vol 1
Vol 2 is online at archive.org but I understand the person I am looking for is in Vol 1
Thomas McKenny b. 1840 Dublin Ireland - I have quite a lot of information on Thomas but it seems that in Vol 1 there is a reference to his brother John McKenney that may givve clues to find John.
Thomas parents were James McKenney and Harriett Donovan Dublin and he lived in
Thornbury Ontario.

Hope someone can help.
