Seeking death date & burial location of Richard Kenney

Jim Steele Jul 23, 2020 12:54 PM

I am looking for information regarding my gggrandfather who died in Montana sometime between 1877-1880. His name was Richard Kenney and may have been traveling with his brother, John Kenney, and possibly his brother-in-law, last name Callery. All were immigrants from Ireland and all miners. Richard disappears from the Maryland 1880 census, but listed in 1870 census; family bible notes he died in Montana.

Dear Mr. Steele,

Thank you for posting your request on History Hub!

The Federal Government does not ordinarily create or maintain birth, death, marriage or divorce records. Such records are made and kept by State and local governments rather than the National Archives. We suggest that you search the Montana Deaths, 1860-2007 FamilySearch index and review the FamilySearch Research wiki for Montana Death Records.

We also suggest that you review the FamilySearch Research wiki for Montana Genealogy as well as NARA’s Resources for Genealogists.

We hope this is helpful. Best of luck with your family research!
