Looking for parents of Patrick Kenny (1839). I believe he was from Hollywell or Ballyhaunis County Mayo. I believe his father was Patrick Kenny. Hopefully Can find out his mother's name also. Thank you.

Alice:
The baptismal records for the RC parish of Ballyhaunis do not start until 1851. Earlier records were lost.
I did search the subscription site Roots Ireland and the earliest Patrick Kenny baptismal record in Co. Mayo was in 1863.
I did look at the 1855 Griffiths Valuation head of household listing for Annagh civil parish (which includes Ballyhaunis) and there was a Patrick kenny in Ballykilleen townland. https://www.failteromhat.com/griffiths/mayo/annagh.htm Not sure if this record is for the father of the 1839 Patrick Kenny but it is a possible lead.
Let us know if you have any additional info.
