Occupation Interests / Re: White Smith

Just off the cuff:- a whitesmith was also known as a tinsmith, because he made a variety of items from tin sheeting.
Among the many and varied items he made were waterbottles for miners, dishes of varied sizes, lunch cans, just to name a few.

Sorry for not contacting you sooner, but was distracted by news from Canada on another part of the family.
The name I'm interested in is Kenmare, or one its variations.
i.e. Kenmure, Kenmore, Kenmuir, Kenmire, Kenmine.
There are others, but this will give you an idea.
Robert Kenmure was born in County Down in 1837, possibly Kilkeel.

Hi Nicky,

Sorry, but wouldn't help, the only married in 1890, and I know where they lived then.
I'm more interested in their offspring.
I knew some of them, but wasn't interested in genealogy 50 years ago.

I have a photo of my grandfather's grave, taken in the 1930s.
Unfortunately, it has cracks all over it.

Thank you to everyone who supplied the information I've been seeking for so long.
Now I have to find out where and when they were married.
I am more than impressed at the speed and attention to detail you've passed on to me.
