I have searched my 3rd great grandfather back to Wigtownshire in Scotland born circa 1774. The 1841 Census says he was born in Scotland and the 1851 Census says he was born in Ireland. I have also seen that his name could have been spelt Keenan as well. He married Isabel Garroch/Garrock on 31 Aug 1793 in Inch, Wigtown and had 11 children. Amongst the middle names of the children there is a name thread running through as Broadfoot but cannot find any connection. |

I have had a look at familysearch.org but cannot go back any further for John Kenyon/Keenan. Any other suggestions or do you see something that I don't? |

Thank you so much Ann but I do have all this information. What I don't have is the next generation back - Father: John Kenyon's parents. Do you know where I can find that information or am I at the end of the line? |
