KENNEDY          

 I found my migrant Kennedy ancestors by virtue of their occupations as master mariners, captains, seamen, and merchant traders in port. They were not boarding ships as passengers so much as working the maritime trade. Captains in their own right this seafaring family sailed out of Ireland in windjammers crossing the Atlantic to the new world. This is their story.

CAPTAIN'S LOG The Mariner Kennedys recognized captains, skippers, or master mariners (largely of Newfoundland) imagine how large the index would be if it contained the names of all Kenendy sailors, coopers, ships joiners, fishermen, weavers and all those whose livelihood came from the sea.
