Ballingarry had a coalmine for the last 200 years so that may be a clue . ----- Original Message ----- From: "JUNE METCALFE" <jaymet@btopenworld.com> To: <IRELAND@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, January 06, 2009 5:39 PM Subject: [IRELAND] Which Ballingarry/Ballinderry Hello I'm new to the list and hope that sks will point me in the right direction. My Kennedy family came from Co Tipperary, but I am not sure which Ballinderry and Ballingarry and I seem to have identified several in both Tipperary North & South. I have identified John Kennedy b1779 in Ballinderry, married Margaret O'Dwyer 1804 died 1842 as the likely parent of Patrick Kennedy who brought his family to England but have no details of him. I have a baptism record for this Patrick Kennedy year 1809, the parish/district is Nenagh. Patrick married Margaret O'Connors in 1837 in St Mary's church, Cahir parish. The family men all worked in the coal mines in England, which may mean that they were a mining family in Co Tipperary. Any information will be most gratefully received!
