Immigration of William Kenna & Mary Fox



The immigration story goes that Mary Fox married William Kenna in the 1830s in Ireland, and as their honeymoon trip, they took a ship and immigrated to the USA. On the ship, they met Matthew Leahy and Margaret (Mary?) O'Brien, who struck up a romance on the voyage. The ship docked in Boston and Margaret continued on to Canada. Matthew told a cousin that he'd just met his future wife and then the next thing I gather is that they are married. Some years later, Matthew and his new bride Margaret move to Little Falls, NY where William and Mary have just happened to settle. They end up building their house next door to the Kenna's and their daughter Ellen (Helen?) ends up marrying William & Mary's son Thomas.
