My ancestor, Mary Ellen Kenny, emmigrated to the United States from Ireland. She was born in 11 October, 1844, but I cannot locate a town. She states on her marriage records, in Michigan to William Kennedy, that she came to the U.S. in 1865, but I cannot locate passenger records for that year, nor any definitive baptism records. Family lore is that she was from Co. Cork, and the she emmigrated as a teenager, taking more than one ship to arrive in New York. I did locate one passenger manifest that describes a passenger named Mary Kenny, aged 17, who sailed from Liverpool, England to New York City on 8 May, 1862. The only other information on her family is that her Father's name was Patrick (stated on her death certificate). Thank you for any help or advice provided.
