Hi Tom,
I've been meaning to email you for some time. After talking with you about my grandmother, Marie K. Kenny,
I had about given up ever finding anything about her before her marriage to my grandfather, Charles Nenno.
You had said that no one you knew about had been able to find her and that included many people who knew
how to search. Well, guess what? I found her! I found her on the website paintedhills.org. On her death
certificate it said she was born in Turtle Creek, Penn. I had used this information to find her on Ancestry.com
but she was not there. I found this website that had Turtle Creek census. And there she was. I thought It
must be the right Marie (Mary) since the total population was very small. Since then Ancestry.com has
added one census from the Turtle Creek collection. Also I have been able to trace some of her siblings to
Anaheim CA right along with my mother's family. Since then I also found her grave and visited it right here
in Southern CA. Charles is also there but I've yet to visit his grave. This has been very exciting, as you
know. My mother's Baptismal certificate had listed Francis Kenney and Anna Kenney also my mother
mentioned "Aunt Annabell, my mother's sister". These mysteries have been solved in the Turtle Creek
census and following this family through the census years. The 1870 census lists John's ( Marie's father)
mother as Bridget. Just yesterday, I think, I found the immigration of his family from Ireland ...I think. Based
on dates, names and the ages of John Kenney and his mother, Bridget . With this, I have found all my
grandparents. Never knowing any of them or anything about them, this is very satisfying for me. I did not
just spring up from no one...I have history!
Francis Kenney and Anna Kenney are my mother's aunts, Marie's siblings, all listed on the census I found.
John's wife, Marie's mother is listed as Mary born in NY about 1840 and died sometime between 1880 and 1890.
I have three different spellings for her maiden name, Conlin, listed on Marie's death certificate, Condron, on her
brother, Henry's death information, and Condorn, on her brother Peter's information. Marie, being the second
oldest child and the older of Henry and Peter, make me think Conlin is more likely correct.
I thought you would like hearing about this . Please add the information from paintedhills.org to the website
where you added the other information. I'd do it only I don't know how.
Take Care,
Paula Wilson
