1930 United States Federal Census
Name: Moira K Kennedy [Moira K Coyle]
Spouse: Thomas J Kennedy
Birth: abt 1889 - Ireland
Arrival: 1906
Residence: 1930 - Queens, Queens, New York
- Here Thomas was born c.1885, occupation recorded as magazine editor. From there I see a Thomas J. Kennedy born 1884, Portumna, Galway. The census index indicates that marriage was c.1916, though I can see nothing evident in the NYT. Also in NY in 1940, in which occupation was editor of "Monthly Review" (presumably something like The United States Catholic Magazine and Monthly Review if it is the same T.K.), and I followed the daughter to death in 2005, which would indicate to me that we are probably talking a different person to the barrister. Didn't find a death date, though somewhat painful to dig through that sort of stuff.
- Thoughts on how that fits with what you have seen elsewhere. — billinghurst sDrewth 12:45, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
- Hmm, sad when it is me that records that they were married, and to which I have no memory of where I pulled that data. That said it would have been surely TOTALLY FACTUAL!!! — billinghurst sDrewth 12:49, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
- I am guessing that I made that conclusion from the same 1930 census record quoted above, there being no other Moira Coyle. In a little further digging, 1915 census shows her as Mary K Coyle, living with her mother. — billinghurst sDrewth 13:01, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
- 1910 census shows Moira (Mary K), aged 23, a stenographer in a magazine office, father alive, clerk in insurance. So that looks pretty good with a little cribbing on the age.
- Probably ... Mary Kate Coyle, Ireland, Civil Registration Indexes, 1845-1958, birth: Jan - Mar 1887 Dundalk
None of this research would align with the writings of encylopaedic articles for Catholic Enyclopedia, so while included from where ask a question on another page, this would not seem to align with these authors. — billinghurst sDrewth 02:46, 3 September 2019 (UTC)
