Hello & Many thanks for any help anyone can provide! Seeking help w/Michael Edward Cranney (he became a S. here in America) & Bridget/Bridgid Dunney! They are purported to Co from Co. Kilkenny. They are my Gg'parents, they came to New England before 1889 when their son Michael, Jr. was born here in Massachusetts. Someone was kind enough to give me a marriage date, but I've since forgotten it. When & where in Co. Kilkenny were they married? Witnesses, kin? Their own families, parents, dates, Locs., siblings? I don't really have any info. from that side of the Atlantic? Oh when they came, from what port, what port did they arrive at? Thank you, Jack MacDonald-Hilton

  • Eileen, I apologize, I never did say Thank You. You found that out, did their Marriage Certificate also have the Father's First Names & Occupations & any other Info.? Be Well, Jack MacDonald-Hilton.

  • Fathers first names  James Crannys  and John Dunny, both alive at the time of the marriage.  Michael Crannys  Greens Hill Kilkenny and Bridget Dunny  Kennys Well Kilkenny. The occupations of both fathers are listed as 'carrier'. Michaels occupation is listed as a labourer and Bridgets as a servant.  Sorry but I am having trouble posting, will try later.
