Here's another note regarding BRENNAN
Al -
Brennans and Kennys have been the most elusive of our family
history.  All we really have are the names and dates of my
great grandparents, and even that is fuzzy at best.

I know that either my grandfather, Bob Brennan, or my great
grandfather, James Brennan, is supposed to have won many
high kicking contests in various Ottawa River taverns.

My great grandmother, Julia Kenny, is supposed to have some
Indian blood, although how much is not clear.

My great grandfather, James Brennan, was killed in a horse
and wagon accident in the Gatineau.  His wife, Julia
(mentioned above) later married a man named Milks.  She
outlived Mr. Milks as well, and married a man named Pombert.

If you run into any information about these folks, I would
greatly appreciate you letting me know.  I'll do the same if

Did any of your Brennans move to Iowa?     In the 1860 Clinton County Iowa 
Census, Elk River Township, there is listed:

 William Brennan   30 yr.  b. Ireland
wife: Margaret          30 yr  b. Canada
Mary                          2 yr.  b. Canada
William                    9 mos. b. Iowa
 
 
The 1880 Clinton Iowa census has a:
 PATRICK BRENNAN  age 70 b. Ireland 
wife:  ANNA                   "   60  b.   "
Two nephews also reside with them:
Michael McEvoy   22y  b. Iowa
James Murtagh    23    b. Kentucky

Hi Al, Bob & Jean
 
Michael Brennan & Anastasia Brophy are my g Grandparents. This Brennan Family 
farmed in Cumberland twn until 1978. None of them went to Iowa.
 
I'm looking for a William Brennan that married into this family-he is not 
listed on 1881 census of Canada may have gone to States or Western Canada.

Hello Jean
Curious on Brennan in the states. Seeing the names Houlahan, Costello fits into my 
line as do the Hawleys, and Michael who came back to Canada for his fathers funeral 
worked for the Brennan Lumber Company, a relative, how I don't know, but Mike and 
his wife Catherine Kennedy  moved back to the States. I can give you a bit more 
stats, but you would know if your Brennans owned a lumber company or not. Many 
thanks for reading this.
Take care
Taylor Kennedy
