Born 24 Jun 1845, Roscommon, Ireland, died 13 Feb 1937, Ensley Center. James Kinney was born at Castlerea, County Roscommon, Ireland, the son of John and Mary McCue Kinney. He married Mary Ann Quinn on 20 Apr 1876. Their first child, Margaret Anna, died at 4 years of age after eating matches, per the Newaygo Republican dated 2 March 1881, and was the first burial in St. John's Catholic Cemetery, Ensley. James wrote a sketch of the journey from Ireland to Baltimore, Maryland with his mother and siblings (the father and oldest brother Thomas having emigrated a year earlier and working as indentured servants in order to bring the family to America): "After two weeks waiting in Liverpool, we sailed on a sail vessel to Baltimore, Maryland. After being out on the ocean more than a week, we met a storm and it drove us back in sight of Williamston, Ireland. Sailors nailed all hatches and had to go to the rigging. Over three hundred passengers besides the ships crew were aboard the vessel. We had eleven deaths while coming to Baltimore across the Atlantic Ocean. We were eleven weeks and three days making the voyage from Liverpool to Baltimore." The vessel, "Sailor's Bridge," sank on its return trip. One of the eleven that did not survive the voyage was Martin Kinney, brother to James. This trip was made in 1849.
