Trying to trace ancestors fron Ballyshanock area.

Grandfather wass born ther in 1848 Edmond OBrien Kennedy aka Tim Featherstone

 

He eventually went to Boston Usa wher my father JAmes Alyious Kennedy was born in 1913

Dad visited the area when he was in his early teens, after the death of his father and met up with a cousin called Mr Redmond Walsh od Ballshanock.

 

Looking to trace and contact any living relatives as well as trying to find out the history of Edmond's siblings who I believe also emigrated to the USA.

  • Hi Brian

    I am delighted to hear from you.  Your grandfather's name is well known in Kildorrery.  Do you know that there is a terrace of houses here named after him - O'Brien Kennedy Terrace?  I will make contact with you on your email address and maybe we can share information.

    Regards
