Patrick Kennedy & wife Anne married 24 Nov 1829 Templemore, Tipperary.

TipperaryTemplemore (Tipperary)

Looking for any information and assistance on my g-g grandfather Patrick Kennedy b. March 1797 Templemore and his wife Margaret. Her maiden name was probably McDonnel, b 1813. I believe they lived on a small farm on the townland of Kilclareen. Any info re Kilclareen?

Patrick's parents were John Kennedy and Ellen Sweeney. Margaret's parents were possibly Robert McDonnel and Ellen Mackey.

Patrick and Anne married in the Sacred Heart Church in Templemore on Nov 24, 1829. They had ten children.

  • Matthew born Jan 1, 1831 , Robert born about 1834, James born July 31, 1835, Ellen born Nov 25, 1837, John born Dec 6, 1839, Mary born Jan 17,1841, Anne born Apr 10, 1843, Margaret born Aug 25, 1845, Catherine born Aug 13, 1848, Patrick born about 1853                                                                                                                    They came to Australia in 1859.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
