Surnames: Kennedy, Robinson Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/UGB.2ACE/87.143.1.1 Message Board Post: Teresa, Not a descendant, but could be related. My James R. Kennedy's father was Andrew Kennedy, born in Scotland about 1815, and lived in Donaghadee, Co. Down, Northern Ireland, when James R. was born there in 1845. James' obituary says that there were nine siblings but I have only found four: Esther, William C., James R. and Elizabeth (Eliza). I do know that in addition to James, William and Eliza also came to Dakota Co. and settled there. Eliza married a Robinson, a family who was also from Co. Down. Who was Daniel's father? Could Daniel have been descended from William C.? Am sure there must be a relationaship between your Daniel Kennedy and my James R. Kennedy somehow.
