Kenny/ Morgan Lambeth/ Wandsworth
« on: Thursday 03 November 22 09:47 GMT (UK) »
HI all,

Looking for information on John Kenny (1854-1917?) Born in Wandsworth.

I am struggling to find any information on his parents, other than his father was called John Kenny also.

I have found an 1871 census which states that John (b.1854 Wandsworth) & his sister Emma (b1851? london,Mdx) Lived in the parish of St Mary the Less. They lived as the son & daughter of Emma Morgan  a shirt maker from Portsmouth? It says Emma Morgan was a widow, but if she was their mother, why would she be down as Morgan?

The only other thing I though was Emma Married John Kenny (Sr), had Emma and John. John Kenny (Sr.) then died and she then re-married a Mr Morgan?

Any help in this matter would be great! As I'm terrible with date finding!

Thank you!
