KENNEY/KENNY/KINNE/KINNEY/KINNY
Isaac Kinney (Jr) was the father
of Susan Kinney, the wife of John R. Harrod.
Isaac Kinney was most likely born on or near the
Below is the known ancestry of Susan (Kinney) Harrod:
William Kinney
William Kinney first appears in the 1733 Somerset Co MD tax records (see below) and listed as owning land in the Naticoke 100 (tracts included Kennys Chance, Good Neighborhood and Descarte). He married a Mary (most likely Mary Waller, daughter of Thomas and Mary Waller per Anne Waller Ramsby [email address as of 6/2012: amramsby@gmail.com] ). William gave Isaac, his son, 50 acres of the tract Descarte located on the branch of Broad Creek on 17 Jan 1755. His will was written on 12 May 1760 and probated in Somerset Co MD on 1 Jun 1771, Book EB-4/15. He must not have included Mary in his will to the extent she expected/wanted as she is listed as approaching the Probate Court and demanding 1/3 of his estate. It is interesting to note that his son Isaac is not mentioned in his will either.
Abstract of William’s will: “To son William: tracts Kennys Chance, Good Neighborhood, part of Descarte (desc), dwelling plantation. If no heirs to son Joseph, pt of Descarte, exec. To dau Ann. Witness: James Windsor, John Young, George Bacon. Came widow Mary Kinney, demands 1/3rds.”
The children of William and Mary included:
1. William
2. Joshua (Joseph?)
3. William
4. Isaac
5. Ann
Isaac Kenney (Sr)
Isaac Kenney (Sr) died in Sussex
Co DE (the county just north of the Ocean City, MD/Fenwick
1. Elijah
2. Josiah
3. Isaac (married Amelia “Millie” Taylor, daughter of Abraham and Mary Olive (Walker) Taylor)
4. William
5. Tabitha
6. Betty (married a Greer)
7. Lovey (married a Benston)
Isaac Kinney (Jr)
Isaac (Jr) was born in Somerset
Co Maryland in approximately 1765. Isaac
first married Amelia Taylor, daughter of Abraham and Mary (Walker) Taylor (See
below for more details on the Taylor genealogy). Between 1800 (where they appear in the
Somerset Co MD census) and 1810 (where they appear in the Bracken
Amelia was born circa 1764, probably in Somerset Co MD and died between 1840 and 1850. On 2 Apr 1852 at the age 87, Isaac married an Ann Brion (age 66) in Bracken Co KY. Two years earlier in the 1850 census, Ann Brion is listed as the only other member of Isaac’s household. Isaac died in Bracken Co KY in 1854 at the age of 89.
Isaac had a large family, including numerous daughters. In the 1810 Bracken Co KY census, Isaac and his wife Amelia Taylor list 8 daughters and 1 son. Other than his second wife Anny (nee Brion), daughter Milly (Garrard) and son Isaac, he unfortunately did not mention any of his other children by name in his will.

“HON. THOMAS B. TAYLOR, Wicomico Co

chronic diseases. Subject born near Mardela Springs Sep 5 1823. His

of the state legislature; member of the MP Church.
Isaac Jr’s short will, written 22 Jan 1854 and probated Apr 1857 can be found in Bracken Co KY Will Book H, page 32: “1st I desire that sufficient amount of my perishable part of my estate be immediately sold after my decease to pay all my just debts & funeral expenses and after the said expenses I devise that all my children shall have one dollar a piece having here to fore received their part excepting Milly Garrard and Milly Garrard I bequeath to her 1/2 of the balance of my perishable part of my estate the other 1/2 I give to my wife Anny Kenney. ...mentions son Isaac... Witness by J.B. Smitson and Hudson W. Rice.” There was a note that J. B. Smitson was deceased when it came time to prove the will.
