Sorry Rose, thought I had the cert but dont, however............. I was told he was a carpenter/master builder.................John Kenny did have alot of old carpentry tools so, I guess that is right.
Teri

What's the occupation for John's father on the marriage cert?

Rose

Thank you Rose, my aunt must be abit confused, where she got the McCullan from.......I dont know, she also said she was scottish....oh well! The only thing I can think of is that McCullan might be John George Kenny c1867, Waterford, Ireland wife? Hopefully we will see.
Thank you............ if by any chance you do find any more info that would be great.

Found this for Elizabeth so she was definitely born as Knight:

Births Sep 1871
Knight Elizabeth Cecilia Wandsworth 1d 528

Rose

What's the occupation for John's father on the marriage cert? The mother isn't listed so how did you get this?

This is what you need to order the Camberwell birth:

Births Mar 1896
Kenney John George Camberwell 1d 836

If your aunt said he was born Dulwich 20/11/1895 this fits because you had 8 weeks to register the birth.

Rose

Hi Rose,
I do have the wedding cert of John Kenny & Nettie Rayner & Johns father was also John Kenny & mother Elizabeth McCullan.
Please may I have the Camberwell freebmd?
Thank you Rose

Births Jun 1919
Kenny Douglas C Rayner Lewisham 1d 1495

Births Dec 1921
Kenny Robert N Rayner Lewisham 1d 1933

Rose

Teri,

I still think this is the one you need because it fits with the place and date of birth:

Births Mar 1896
Kenney John George Camberwell 1d 836

I think you're better off getting the marriage cert to check the father's name:

Marriages Sep 1916
Kenny John G Rayner Camberwell 1d 1438

This one doesn't use William as a middle name.

Rose

Kenny John William G Wandsworth 1d 545, this must be the one but, his mothers name was Elizabeth McCullan.
A aunt told us that he was born at 52, Goodrich rd, Dulwich, London.
I have his marriage cert to Nettie Rayner & it is 1898, so you have the one Portland Rose, THANK YOU.
If you could find any info on his father that would be great.
Thank you again
Teri

Rose

If you don't have the birth certificate how do you know where he was born and his date of birth?

Rose

There's this but it's 1898 not 1895 and the quarter is wrong.

Births Jun 1898
Kenny John William G Wandsworth 1d 545

Rose

Where do you see that? I don't see it on FreeBMD or Ancestry.

Which district and quarter?


Rose

Hi,
The reference no for John George Kenny 1895 is, 1d 545
Hope it helps
Teri

Teri,

Dulwich comes under Camberwell district, hence the birth I listed. If you've applied for the birth certificate where is the reference on FreeBMD?
