Searching for Kenny family related to my great grandmother, Sarah Maria Kenny, said to be from County Clare, born 14 June 1846 in Ireland, migrated to USA about 1852 with her older sister Eliza Kenny, born 8 April 1839. Sarah died in Mendocino County, California 13 May 1931. Eliza died 13 November 1936 in San Francisco, California. Their mother, Christine/Christina Kenny was born about 1811 in County Offaly or Kings County, Ireland. She died 29 September 1890 in San Francisco, California. The family was Catholic. There was also a brother to Sarah and Eliza, Eugene, born about 1840 in Ireland who was living in San Francisco, California in 1910.
Would appreciate any help locating Sarah's father, last name Kenny, first name unknown, and any other relations. There is quite a large family of descendants in California. Thanks.
