Hi, I know there are lots of McKennas in County Monaghan, particularly around Emyvale and Ballyrush where my ancestors are from. I have been trying to find an Anne McKenna, who I believe was married to my 3rd great grandfather Patrick McNulty. Annes seem to be quite rare, so I thought it may be a family name, He was born around 1819, but could have been earlier, hecame out to Australia in 1864, after his son Denis and Mary Carolan came here in 1860. So we presume his wife had died. We can find no birth records for Patrick, Denis or another brother Owen.
I did find distant McKenna matches on Gedmatch living in Tedavnet, very close to Emyvale, hence my email
I wondered if you had a tree, if there might have been any McNultys in it?
