Greetings Kennerly - Kennerley - Kenerly - Kennelly, etc ... (hereafter referred to as Kennerly's) we have contact with close to 300 Kennerly's now!!!

My research has slowed down some lately ... a new career for me (life after the military), wedding/anniversarys, and of course taxes ... and with the summer will come a break but keep sending your questions & info! We've actually been able to solve a number of puzzles but we've added new folks searching for family members, so we have many more family lines to figure out.

We're looking for connections to Kennerly's back to England (of course), as well as how the Kennerly's went/where/when:

Everton Kennerly -- was he from Maryland before traveling to GA/TN and on to Texas?

Elias Kennerly in southwestern Illinois in the early 1800's?

James Kennerly from VA traveled to eastern Illinois around the 1820's (and did he serve in the War of 1812)?

Maryland Kennerly's during the time period 1750 to 1850 ... how do the family lines untangle?

All the GA Kennerly's in the early 1800's ... some were from Ireland, others from SC ... any relatives out there?

Eastern TN Kennerly's arrived there in the early 1800's but from where?

Where did the PA Kennerly's of today come from?

Did you know that it might have been David Kennerly (sp?) that served as George Washington's quartermaster? See Washington's diary excerpt attached.

There are more questions, but you can see they span the country. We've found a number of Kennerly's that migrated around the US and abroad recently, so if you're looking for stray relatives, let me know and we may have some info to share. The key point is ... sharing info makes this more enjoyable and helps others, and in turn, helps all of us figure this genealogical puzzle out.

The rest of this update is on English origins of the Kennerly's ... well, no matter what, that's probably where 99% of us have our roots. I've also included some recent Kennerly deaths, Maryland Kennerly info, and a few pictures (though I've cut down on the number of pictures because several folks saw it makes the email file sizes too large.) Enjoy the info!

Last thing, if you haven't joined the DNA test, please consider doing so ... it will confirm your lineage and will also help others. You never know, by helping others connect, that may in turn unlock info you need, too! I haven't figured out how to reach our English cousins and have them join the test, but that would greatly assist our attempts to figure out where we came from exactly. Here's the DNA site : http://www.familytreedna.com/public/Kenerley/

If you can't join (women can't nor I don't recommend those with different surnames join the project either), consider donating $10 or so ... several folks are put off by the price of $99, but really, that's cheap (two tanks of gas!). Or sponsor a relative who can participate!

Cheers

Origins of the Kennerly's

My "cousin" Racael wrote an excellent paper back in 2000, in which she concluded based on her research across numerous sources, that the present day Kennerly's may be descendants of the Kinnersley's in the Wildmoors, Shropshire. Written as Kinardsey, the first record was of Sir John de Kynardeseye, who's nephew John de Kynardeseye was clerk to Thomas, Earl of Lancaster during the reign of Edward II. She wrote on to note that there are numerous "places" where Kennerly could have come from. I agree with her to some degree ... as a place name, it's not confined to Devon as some English Surname Dictionarys would lead you to believe. There are numerous Kennerleigh, Kynnerleye villages, parishes, and "land" across the north western part of England ... and guess what -- that's where most past records and current Kennerly's are to be found today!

The DNA project though paints another perspective to consider ... there are 2 groups of Kennerly's that seem to exist. First, a group of Kennerly's have a "typical" European R1 type DNA; and second, a group of Kennerly's have a very unique and "untypical" E3b DNA. How untypical? Just look at the attached map (Y-MAP) on the distribution of E3b DNA in England. E3b is light blue ... look at England. Less than 3% .. so folks, I'm not a geneticist ... but I have a theory: The R1 DNA members could be the ones from various "places" named Kennerly. This accounts for why the R1 DNA Kennerly members have a wide variety of DNA. But the E3b Kennerly's most likely come from one individual named Kennerly, who probably immigrated to England with the Romans. The timing coincides with mutation rates (I speculate some here) to about 43 AD, when the Romans invaded Britain and 78 AD, when the Romans conquered Wales.

Oh yes, this place named Wales ... where is it? Why is Samuel Kennerly often referred to as coming from Wales? Look at the attached map and you'll see .... Wales is next to Chester and Cheshire .. where Samuel's will refers to Over, a small parish. And review the English records below ... the Kennerly's are to be found all over that area!

There are many reasons why the Kennerly's could have been said to have come from Ireland ... and Scotland. See other possibilities on Bob Kennerly's website on tribal pages. Ked Kenerly has good info on his site, too. So, be sure to visit:

Here's some info:

From Alan Kennerley (UK), whom I've lost email contact with, he found:

Roger de Platt del Kennerley

Chester Court Records 1284

Interpreting the name: Roger (from settlement/place of Kennerley) held land as a 'free tenant' (not a serf)

Lived in Macclesfield, County of Cheshire, England. About the time the English first adopted family names.

Kynnersley as a place is also noted in 1086:

Picture attached (fishut)

Fisherman's Cottage, Otterspool Shore Photographed in 1907, the Fisherman's Hut was occupied by the Kennerley family from the 19th century until it was demolished in 1933. The cottage was home to generations of fishermen who maintained their occupation despite many attempts to dislodge them. In the second half of the 19th century several such attempts were made by the Cheshire Lines Committee who purchased the adjoining land, and in 1898 the Corporation tried to levy rates on the occupant, Mr. Samuel Kennerley. Fortunately for Mr. Kennerley, a judicial decision was made in his favor, which ruled that in the eyes of the law he ranked as a squatter. At the turn of the century, however, the day's of the fisherman were over. Kennerley complained; "Twenty years ago, there was plenty of fish to be got on the Mersey waters. At this spot, salmon, codlings, whiting, fluke sole and shrimps (none better) - but now...", he added with a sigh, "...the dirty water has driven them away. Garston Docks spoiled the fishery, and the Manchester Canal has given them the finishing touch".

Newspaper: Republican Vindicator March 27th, 1866

Summary: The home of Dr. Samuel Kennerly burned to the ground last Monday night. The family was unaware of the fire until the roof began collapsing, and thus were unable to save many of their belongings. The Staunton Vindicator founded in 1845 as the Augusta Democrat by publishers Stevenson and Geiger. In 1849, the paper's name was changed to the Republican Vindicator, and in 1858 to the Staunton Vindicator and General Advertiser.

Our E3b Ancestor?

Kinnersley Castle

>The name of "Kinnersley" contains in it the earliest history of the place.

>Some Saxon colonist, called "Kynard" or a Kineherd" made his clearing (ley)

>in the dense forest which covered the greater portion of Western

>Herefordshire, and in the fosse and stockade, raised to protect him from the

>attack of man and beast, laid the foundation of the future Castle. At what

>period the stone structure was first erected is impossible to say as most of

>it has been effaced by later building on its site, but supposing it to have

>been coeval with the earliest part of the Church, it would be Norman. It

>formed, at an early period, the home of a family which took its name from

>their place of residence and the old pedigree of the Kinnersleys or

>Kynardeslys is adorned with the representation of a moated Castle (of a very

>conventional type) in front of which stands an old man, halberd in hand and

>supported by twelve armed men, awaiting passage across the drawbridge of

>three mounted solseirs. The preamble of the pedigree informs us that this

>represents John de Kynardsley and his son receiving the sheriff and his

>officers when they came by the Conqueror's order to survey the land for the

>Domesday Book! It is recorded "there was an ould gentleman that lived and was owner of Kynnardsleye Castle, in com. Hereford; by name John de Kynnardsleye, and by title a knight. This ould gentleman was blind, he had then liveing with him twelve sonnes who with himself he armed and stood in his castle gate, his halberd in his hand, attending the coming of sherriffs and other commissrs from ye king, who being arrived, demanded of him by what tenure he held his castle and lands; ye ould knight replied by his armes, showing to them his halberd." It adds "the armes ye Kynnardsleys bore at first was Azure a Lyon rampant argent, until one Hugh de Kynardsley went into the Holy land >with Prince Edward in vita H.3. where he received knighthood and had ye Hierusalem Crosses added to his Coate of Armes." The Domesday Book itself does not confirm this and Kinnersley has been identified as "Walelege" (Ailey) one of two places in N.W. Herefordshire where a Castle (domus defensabilis) is recorded then in the hands of Gilbert Fitz Tuold, but "Kinnardsley" held by Ralph of Mortimer is marginally noted as "Kinnardsley"

>in the Balliol copy. The Victoria County History identifies it as

>"Curdeslege," held by Gryffydd ap (son of) mariadoc. All may be true as the

>manor may have been divided at this time. The de Kynardesleys may have been

>living here but did not hold the Manor directly from the King or a Suzerain

>Baron. The name Elburga's Ley or clearing is interesting as this appears to

>be a woman's name possibly the widow of Kynard, early feminism?

>

Philmore's recent publication on Herefordshire Domesday Book supports

"Elburgelega" which Richard held from the Mortimers, Edreic having been told 'he could go where he would". The detail reads "I hide which pays tax, in

Lordship 2 ploughs, 3 villagers, 6 smallholders with 4 ploughs. It was waste

value now 30/-." The de Kynardsleys may well have been descended from "Richard'.

>

>>From other records it can be stated that one Hugh de Kynardesley was Sheriff of Herefordshire in 1250 and that while in the discharge of his office he was taken ill, whereupon Robert de Trillet clerk, and Reginald de Rode were >appointed to adjust and pass his accounts, (Mem. Scacc. 35 Hen. III Rot. 17:

>Duncumb. i. 348). From the Monasticon it also appears that he was a

>benefactor to the Abbey of Craswall, and his name occurs in the list of

>knights serving under Edward I. In the first year of the reign of Edward III >Richard de Kynardesley occurs in 1316 as lord of Newchurch (at ownship in the Parish), and in 1318 received pardon for having joined in the rebellion of Thomas, Earl of Lancaster. (Parl. Writs.). The last of the family of whom we find mentioned are John de Kynaresley and Matilda his wife who presented to the Parish Church in 1335 and 1339 (Episc. Reg.). Their heiress, (either

>sister or daughter) married Richard de la Bere, who in right of his wife,

>became Lord of Kinnersley and obtained in 1340 license to hold a market and

>fair there. He served as Knight of the Shire in 1355 and won his spurs at the Battle of Crecy. Dying in 1382 he was buried, together with his widow

>Sibilla, in the Monastery of the Black Friars at Hereford. His son, named

>Kynard to commemorate his mother's family, presented to the Church of

>Kynnersleyin 1382 and from his designation "lobiliis vir" we may infer was

>also knighted, and from this time forward the name of de la Bere becomes

>prominent in the annals of the County.

>

>However, the family of Kynnersley did not die out as a junior branch but had emigrated to Staffordshire at an earlier date, where they have lived until a

>few years ago and have now moved to the South. Mr. Sneyd-Kynnersley, a recent head of the family not long ago visited the Castle with his wife and are believed to be the first Kynnersleys to have visited it for 600 years! They may be the case here, as in 1223 Llewelyn the Great, when haraying the

>Marches took "Kynardsleigh" Castle from Baldwin de Hodnet. Henry III took

>strong action and the Castle was restored to its owner, it cannot however be

>proved with certainty this was the Castle though the King was at Hereford and Leominster during this campaign. The outstanding historical interest which attaches both to the house of de la Bere and the Castle of Kinnersley is derived from an incident in the life of the unfortunate Henry Stafford, Duke of Buckingham, of which full details have survived in contemporary MS.

>It will be remembered that among the powerful nobles who helped Richard III

>to seize the Crown one of the most active was the Duke of Buckingham, a man

>in whose veins no little of the royal blood of England ran. Whether there

>arose in his mind a natural reaction when he saw the evil results which

>attended his too successful exertions and remorse led him to seek their

>reversal cannot be determined with certainty, but it is evident that the

>Duke, in spite of honors received early conceived a hatred against the King

>as is clearly shown in Shakespeare's Richard III. The scene where Richard

>avoids confirming the earldom of Hereford on the Duke exemplifies this.

>Archbishop Morton, a zealous Lancastrian, directed his attention to the young Earl of Richmond, as the only person who could free the nation from Richard's tyranny and accordingly the Duke raised in his favour the standard of revolt in the Welsh Marches where his own influence was predominant. Amongst others he owned the castles of Hay and Huntington. His plan, however, failed partly due to the floods which made the Severn impassable, and partly by the hesitation displayed by the Courtenays and other fellow conspirators.

The Duke therefore "came from Brecknoke to Webblie and with him brought my Lady his wife, my Lorde Stafforde and my Lord Henrie and there tarried one week and send for the gentlemen of the country unto him, an when he had spoken with them departed then and at his departing delivered his Son and Heir to Sir Richard Delabere knight for to keep until he sent for him by a token."

>Most faithfully did both Sir Richard and his wife Elizabeth fulfill this

>trust, concealing the youthful family of the Duke at Kinnersley and thus

>averting from them the same bloody fate which involved their father, (See

>Shakespeare). However his family were saved from Richard;s wrath, his son and heir getting away from Kinnersley riding a pillow as a gentlewoman to a

>"Widdowe House in Harrefforde".

>

>Somewhere about 1588 the property was sold to Roger Vaughan of Cleiro (Clyro) Radnorshire, some 9 miles up the Wye Valley. Roger Vaughan was a Great Grandson of the second son of Thomas Vaughan and Helen Gethyn of Hergest, near Kington whence came the famous Welsh manuscript the Red Book of Hergest. Legends about "Black Vaughan" and the Phantom Black Dog are widely known and recounted in "Malvern Chase"; he was killed at the Battle of Banbury, his father Sir Roger Vaughan of Bredwardine was killed at Agincourt.

To return to Roger Vaghan, he had led a prominent public life in both Radnor

>and Brecknockshire having been High Sherif of both counties and M.P. for 11

>years for Radnorshrie. His wife retained the aristocratic but dying Welsh

>custom of having no surname being daughter of ap Rhys to 5 names 'ap' meaning "son of". Roger Vaughan now set about entirely reconstructing the Castle in the then current fashion at great expense.

>

>Unfortunately and most extraordinarily no records of any description of this >vast work have survived and in fact this is the first time it has been

>correctly stated in print. It is not known when it was started, how long it

>took, or if it was ever finished. All that can be stated with certainty is

>that his name does not appear in public life in Radnorshire after 1587 and he was living at Kinnersley in 1601. The work must have taken several years

>between these dates. He has however left proof of his work. His crest is over the fireplace in the Solar and the plasterwork of that room must be

>Elizabethan, see later description. They occur also on the Drawing Room Door >and almost certainly, but much worn, on the headstone over the South Gable.

>He died in 1607 and his son John, who had married Joan Baynham (ab Einon) of

>Clowerwall Glos. Lady of Abenhall and Micheldean, died in 1618 leaving as

>heir his 3 year old son Baynham Baughan. Joan a staunch Catholic sold

>Kinnersley in that year and retired to her own property in Gloucestershire

>where she suffered for her faith all her life including being imprisoned at

>Gloucester in 1641 for treason. The direct line apparently became extinct

>about 1704 but the name Baynham has been retained in the well-known Catholic

>Vaughan family of "Courtfield" Welsh Bicknor, near Symonds Yat into this

>Century, of this family was Cardinal Vaughan. From this Catholic connection a Priests' Hole has been found at Kinnersley recently. It consists of what were formerly loose floorboards and carefully trimmed beams between which one can drop into a cavity over the closet in the hall below and thence into two

>disused chimney shafts adjoining. Unfortunately, it has not proved practical >to show this which is under our bathroom plumbing!

>

>By Joan Vaughan the Castle was sold in 1618 to Francis Smallman, a younger

>son of the Elton family of that name, who after serving as M.P. for

>Leominster in 1620 died at Kinnersley in 1633. His son, by his second

>marriage, succeeded him and married a daughter of that gallant cavalier Sir

>Robert Whitney, who surviving her husband, remarried John Booth of Letton,

>"an old Royalist and a zealous lover of the Church of England." (mon. Ins. in Cathederal). Kinnersley passed with Lucy, elder daughter and co-heiress of >William Smallman to her husband James Pytts of Kyre co. Worcester. He sold it about the year 1660 to Sir Thomas Morgan, knight (created a Baronet 1 Feb. >1660-1), a member of an old Herefordshire family seated at Vowchuch in the

>Golden Valley, and distinguished as one of the most successful parliamentary >officers in the West of England. As Major Morgan he had been second in

>command to Colonel Birch at the taking of Hereford by siege in the Civil War.

>

>Major General Morgan, Governor of Edinbugh stood high in the favour of Monk

>and in 1660 held the Castles of Edinbugh and Leith and commanded the Scottish Army when Monk went southwards to prepare the way for the restoration of Charles II; and it was in recognition of his important military services that the dignity of a Baronet and the governorship of the Island of Jersey were subsequently conferred upon him. His son and successor was sometime governor of Chester Castle and M.P. for the county and at his death in 1689 left issue (besides a son who succeeded him in the estates and representation of the county) two daughters, the elder of whom married John Walsham, Esq., of Knill Court and the younger became the wife of Thomas Clutton of Pensax. Worcestershire, to whose children Price, James and Henry Clutton in succession, Kinnersley was bequeathed by their cousin the last Baronet, who having also represented the County as M.P. died without heir in 1767.

>

>Sir Henry Morgan the Buccaneer and later Governor of Jamaica is (inter alia) >stated to be the brother of the first Sir Thomas Morgan.

>

>Thomas Clutton, Esq. sold Kinnersley in 1801 to Leonard Parkinson, Esq. whose daughter and heir married in 1812 J.A.Graham Clarke, Esq., of Newcastle-on Tyne. From Mr. Clarke the Castle and Manor were purchased by Thomas Reavely, Esq., in about 1855. His daughter married George Fredrick Bodley, the Arts and Crafts architect. He designed a wallpaper especially for Kinnersley Castle which is still produced by Watts of Westminster, the firm he founded along with his fellow architects Thomas Garner and Gilbert Scott the younger. Thomas Reavely built the present porch incorporating the original door into it, also the East Gable, Library bay and the buttress to support the South wing. Some 40 years later the family let the property to tenants which included a Mr.Egerton, Sir John Penefather, a Belgian Hospital during the First World War, and later Major Davey.

>

>Sir John Penefather did much restoration work 1904-06 including putting in

>the fine ceiling in the Ballroom and laying the Ballroom floor. This room had been divided and used as kitchens though originally the Great Hall, it will be noticed that the panelling shows where canvas was nailed over it and it was covered with wallpaper. Sir John also put in electricity and modern

>plumbing. The Hornsby Hot Bulb Engine of 1891 provided electricity from the

>early date of 1905 until 1955 through a large range of batteries. The wiring >having given no appreciable faults survived in use on 110V until 1985 when

>with Fire Brigade pressure it was replaced. The original main switches can

>still be seen on request.

>

>In 1940 the Reavely family sold the Estate to Lord Brocket !!! He resided

>here until the end of the war then he broke up the estate in 1945 and

>returned to Brocket Hall, hiring an entire train from Kinnersley station to

>move his belongings and stock. The Castle and its park were sold to Major and Mrs. Holden who lived here until 1951. In 1952 the Estate was again broken up, and the park land was sold as farm land. At this time most of the ancient park land trees were removed.

>

>The Castle passed quickly through several hands of whom only one, Mr. Esmond >Morse, actually lived here and when only for 6 months. In 1954 it was

>purchased by myself. The family and myself hope we have brought to an end the long period of tenants and the frequent changes of ownership which have not really been favorable to its wellbeing.
