Pronounciation of Kinneigh

CorkKinneigh (Cork)

I am searching for the hometown of my relative James Corcoran born ca 1831 in Co Cork.  One of his children's godfather was Timothy Sullivan.  HIs gravestone reads "Timothy Sullivan a native of the Parish of Kenna Co of Cork Ireland and for many years a respected citizen of his adopted country who departed this life Feb 26 1863 Ae 56"

I am unable to find a Parish named Kenna and wondered if Kinneigh might be pronounced as kenna?
