Author: TBPurvis85 Surnames: Kemp, Daly, McDonnell Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.kemp/1823/mb.ashx Message Board Post: This "Will" Kemp is listed on the SSDI but without a birthplace or a specific place of death or last address in California. The index says that he got his SS card in Mississippi. Does anyone know who he was? Did he marry? Children? We have a William Kemp in our Cork Ireland family who was baptized in a Catholic church there on 26 Feb 1881 in Cork city and came to the US in 1905. A passenger list entry says that he was in New York city from 1905-1907, went back to Cork for almost a year, then came back to New York in May 1908. We don't know what happened to him after that but family legend says that he stayed in the US. He was a son of William Abraham Kemp and Sarah Daly and his siblings were Mary Ellen (born 1863), Alice (b.1869), Oscar and his twin Isabelle Agnes (b.1871)and Henry John (b.1884). Wondering if "Will" and "William" are the same person - without spending $30 for his SS application!
