James Alexander Kennedy & Jane from Ulster IRE to Chicago IL
I am trying to establish lineage on James Alexander Kennedy who immigrated from Northern Ireland on or around 1884 according to census records.He and wife Jane moved to Chicago Illinois where he was with Chicago Fire Dept.I do not know Jane's maiden name.They had several children:Frank, Patricia, Archie, James Alexander and one more child I believe.Frank went to work for Singer Sewing Machine.I cannot find info on Patricia or Tricia.Archie and James Alexander were involved in City of chicago departmental jobs.I am interested in finding immigration and lineage back to IRE.James Alexander had a son named James Alexander who in turn married Bessie (a wido with two sons from a first marriage) who had the following children:Francis Martin aka Frank, James alexander, John,, Betty aka Elizabeth who died in a fire, and Reid (aka Snork).
