Father of Elenora (Hanora?) "Norah" Kearney Kenney (ca.1835-1913) and husband of Eliza Fitzgerald. Estimated DOB. Death occured before Elenora's marriage to James Sheldon Kenney on 8 July 1860 in Brooklyn.

NOTE: The 22 Feb 1823 marriage record from the Diocese of Cashel is only a *potential* match, as the groom is named as James, not John. [Microfilm 02497 / 02 | Page 86  Bansha and Kilmoyler; County of Tipperary; Diocese of Cashel and Emly. Marriages, Jan. 1822 to July 1823 (Jas. Karney to Eliza Fitzgerald)]:
"1823 Feb. 22 Jas. Karney & Eliza Fitzgerald
Karney Present:- Pat. Hogan & John Keating"

I have not yet found other records of marriage between a John Kearney & Eliza Fitzgerald in the right time period or general area.

    Irish press warns against Jamaican Indentured Servitude

    <p>The theme was always the same: the pestilential climate of the island, the reduction of poor emigrants to slaves, the severity and cruelty of the planters (and planter-dominated Assembly clinging to every vestige of oppression) and, of course, the absence of priests and chapels.</p>
