Mary KENNY 
Mary was born about 1806 in Kilcavan, County Wicklow, Ireland. Mary's father was Bartholomew KENNY and her mother was Anne BREEN. Her paternal grandparents were James KENNY and Mary BYRNES; her maternal grandparents are John BREEN and Jean WILLIAMS. She had four brothers and two sisters, named James, Thomas, Richard, Philip, Catherine and Sarah (Sarah). She was the third youngest of the seven children.General Notes
It is possible that this Mary was Martin of Tomacork's sister. Anne Burgess noted:
“The widow, Mary Kenny Byrne, is on the FW CD, ID 150. (It says Simon was scratched, and if so, he came later.)
I believe Mary Kenny Byrne here is the sister of Martin K of Tomacork. Myles maybe a cousin.
Simon and his family are buried beside Myles, and Myles's daughter Mary was godmother to one of Simon's children. (Mary K Byrne may be buried beside Myles as well, but without a stone.)
Mary Kenny Byrne's son, Michael, married my first cousin, thrice removed, Margaret Murphy. (I think that's right--my ggfather's first cousin.) Margaret was also a FW evictee from Parkmore townland.
Mary Kenny Byrne's grandson, John (he was Simon's son) married my great-aunt, Mary Agnes Murphy. She's the one great-aunt I actually knew.
