I am looking for either a birth or baptism record on a Patrick Kenny (1868). I believe he was born in County Kerry.  I believe his father was Bartholomew Downey?  Thank you

  • Irish birth records are available for free at www.irishgenealogy.ie.

    Some Kerry baptismal records are also available on that site.

     

    Are you sure Patrick and Bartholomew had different surnames?  Any idea who his mother was?

  • Sorry. Got my grandparents mixed up. It is Downey.  Kenny is my other Grandfather's last name. But thank you

  • Alice, I found the following, but it seems that it is too late to be your Patrick.  Also, this Patrick was born in Waterford.

     

    Patrick Downey, son of Bartholomew Downey and Ellen Downey, bap. 25 Aug 1839 in parish of Trinity Without in Co. Waterford. Sponsors Thomas Walsh, Mary Bryan. (Taken from a transcription on RootsIreland; original register page at National Library of Ireland)
