  Father	Thomas "Tom" Meaney,   b. Mar 1843, Stone Island, Caplin Bay, Newfoundland ,   d. 5 Apr 1928, Calvert, Newfoundland  (Age ~ 85 years)
  Mother	Mary Kennedy,   b. Abt 1845, Ferryland, Newfoundland ,   d. 24 Jun 1891, Caplin Bay, Newfoundland  (Age ~ 46 years)
  Married	Bef 1870  [1]
  No marriage record was found for Mary Kennedy and Thomas Meaney. Unfortunately, the surviving Holy Trinity Parish marriage records have survived only from November 1, 1870, onward. While with most couples, children were born within the first year after marriage, Thomas and Mary's first son, John, was born in June of 1872. It is hard to determine if maybe they were married elsewhere, possibly in 1871.
