General Notes

Sponsors at her baptism were Nicholas Balfe and Mary Balfe
Age 75 when died.
I found a Mary Ann Kenney in Sturgeon Bay on the 1870 census listed as a domestic servant on page 9 of the census.  It showed her as age 18, which could therefor be her.  This would mean that all the known siblings went to Door County, WI, with the exception of Eleanor.   She married in 1876 in Smith Falls, Ontario.

Chris Surfus sent me an article from the Door Co. Advocate, dated Dec. 22, 1910.  It states ,
"Mrs. Mary Hourigan of Smith Falls, Ont. is revisiting this town after being absent of 39 years.  She is a sister of Edward and James Kenny and Mrs. Phil Gillick, and will be rembembered by the older resisdence. Frank J. Hourigan and his wife of Carthage, NY, are also spending a week here, the first being a son of Mrs. Hourigan.  He is an engineer on a NY railroad and expects to remain for a week."
This tells me that the above Mary Ann Kenney on the 1870 census is this Mary Kenny Hourigan.

In another article from the same paper, Dec. 29th, 1910, there was an article Chris sent, " Richard Kenny of Omaha, Neb., is spending the holidays with his relatives and friends and a family reunion was held with in the week, at which all the surviving members of the family were present."

On her death records it states that she died at 15 Lavinia St, in Smiths falls, Ont.

She lived at this place of residence for 20 years and in Ontario for 75 years.. her physicians name was Dr. J T Hogan.  Name of informant was John Hourigan, her son.  Date of death, Jan 18, 1928.  Cause of death was Pulminary Tuberculosis.  Duration of illness was 2 years.
