See "Israel Kenny, His Children and Their Families," Edwin Wallace Bell (1944). Israel was Ruling Elder of the First Congregational Church of Maugerville, N.B. He resided at Topsfield, MA in 1762 and relocated to Oromocto, N.B. He was a blacksmith. He is buried by the Old Baptist Church in the Morrison graveyard at Oromocto. {also see "Amherst, Maine: Her Settlement and People," Constance Hanscom Jellison (Bar Harbor, ME, 1975), p. 86, which reports that he drowned on Christmas Eve. He fell through the ice crossing the river while returning from a visit. His wife was visiting in Topsfield at the time.} "Planters and Pioneers," p. 180, states he resided at Burton, which is just east of Oromocto opposite Maugerville along the St. John River. A descendant in 1931 wrote that Israel "had been a member of the army with Gen. Wolfe at the capture of Quebec, 1759. He left Newburyport 1767 and went to N.B. and settled at Maugerville and Oromocto...." "A History of a Branch of the Kinney Family of New Brunswick, Canada," LeBaron W. Kinney, Sr., 1932, is reported to be at the Boston, MA library, but has not been consulted. His brother, Asa Kenney, predeceased his wife, Abigail, who m. (2) Richard Barlow, storekeeper at Maugerville, N.B. Bell states (p. 1): "Following the removal of the Acadians from Nova Scotia, which province then included New Brunswick, Governor Lawrence of Nova Scotia in 1759 caused to be posted in the New England colonies a proclamation for new settlers who would occupy the lands cleared and farmed by the Acadian French as a means of preventing the latter's return. The most attractive lands were to be reserved for officers and soldiers who had fought in the late war against France. Among other inducements offered in the proclamation was, 'Full liberty of conscience, papists excepted,' a powerful appeal to the New England people a large proportion of whom were descendants of those Puritans and the Pilgrim Fathers who had come to America seeking religious freedom. ... In 1762 two or three hundred souls sailed from Newburyport in Massachusetts to the Bay of Fundy and up the River Saint John for about fifty miles where they disembarked. A township which was later given the name of Maugerville (pronounced Majorville), on the east bank on the exceedingly fertile inverval lands was laid out. The settlement of Maugerville was five or six years old when Israel Kenny, later spelled Kenney, arrived from Topsfield, Mass., with his wife Susannah Hood. Israel Kenny was born in Ireland, probably in Belfast. This fact was told by two of his grand-daughters to their grand-children. ..."

From "Carleton County Pioneers", posted on-line by the New Brunswick Genealogical Society (1996): 5. Kinney - 19 Sep 1974, p. 15: Israel Kinney appears to have been the most remote ancestor in New Brunswick of the Kinney family. It is believed he was born in Ireland, probably in Belfast [doubtful - AEM]. His parentage is unknown. His birth date likewise, but it was likely about 1740. The original spelling of the family name seems to have been Kenny, but Kenney and Kinney are more common today. For this sketch I will use Kinney. All three are synonymous. Edwin W. Bell, in Israel Kenny, His Children and their Families, 1944, tells us that the Kinneys were workers in metal for several generations. Israel Kinney was a blacksmith, and an artist with wrought iron. He made all manner of cooking utensils for use in the fireplace: long handled fry pans and skillets, trivets (stands for pots and kettles over the fire), andirons, etc. And he made builders hardware: bolts, angle hinges, nails sliced from old scythe blades; even locks and keys. He was also a gunsmith. It is said he was the first to set up a forge in Maugerville (although that seems unlikely since he did not arrive until four years after the first permanent English settlers there), and that his son Stephen, and his grandson Israel Kinney, followed the trade.
Israel Kinney married, Jun. 9, 1763, at Topsfield, Mass., Susannah, daughter of Nathaniel & Abigail (Potter) Hood. She was born at Topsfield, Oct. 27, 1745. Her sister, Sarah Hood, had married, Dec. 9, 1762, Alexander Tapley; and her sister, Abigail Hood, had married, Jul. 18, 1761, Stephen Hovey. The three sisters, with their husbands, removed from Topsfield to the Township of Maugerville, N.B. Alexander and Sarah Tapley, and Stephen & Abigail Hovey, came in the schooner "Eunice" which arrived at Saint John Apr. 26, 1767. Israel and Susannah Kinney arrived later the same year. Alexander and Sarah Tapley were fortunate enough to secure land in Maugerville the year they arrived, but apparently there was none available for the Kinneys and Hoveys. They probably stayed at first with the Tapleys, or with the Barlows who had arrived in 1765. Richard Barlow was in charge of the store established in Maugerville by the Saint John River Society, and his wife was Abigail, widow of Israel's brother, Asa Kinney. It was probably about 1768 when Israel Kinney first went to Oromocto. There was built shortly after that time a blockhouse, called Fort Hughes, at the mouth of the Oromocto on its southerly bank. It was occupied by about 25 men under the command of Lieut. Constant Connor, and was used to control traffic on the Oromocto water route. Israel Kinney built his log house just above the blockhouse, and his land stretched up the hill where the Town of Oromocto is now located. Bell reports (p. 3): "The Kenney family seem to have been members of the Anglican church...but Israel Kenny was moved by the evangelical enthusiasm of the Congregational people of Maugerville, joined their church and was made an elder. These people of Maugerville came from that Puritan stock that believed in witches and hung them. Their religion was too demanding for Israel and he fell from grace and was brought before the elders. He had back-slided, had indulged in rum, then universally drunk except in Maugerville." Family tradition has it that Susannah Kinney sailed to Mass. during the summer of 1791 to visit her relatives in Topsfield. She was still there Christmas Eve that year when Israel crossed to Maugerville on the river ice, perhaps to pick up a few things at Barlow's store, although another report says to deliver a set of chains that he had made for a customer. On his return, probably after dark, he got into an "air hole" as he neared home, and was drowned. He was buried in the old "Morrison Grave Yard," located near where the Baptist Church was later built in Oromocto. His youngest son, Andrew, was born in Topsfield shortly after Israel's death. His widow returned to Oromocto with Andrew, and later married her widower brother-in-law, Alexander Tapley of Maugerville.
Israel & Susannah Kinney had 14 children, several of whom removed to Carleton Co. They were:
1. Deborah Kinney, b. in 1764; m. Benen Foster. They removed to old Wakefield shortly after 1800. Their farm was Lot 31 at Somerville, about three-quarters of a mile south of the covered bridge at Hartland. They had 12 children. [See below]
2. Sarah Kinney. She married Richard Kimball. They lived at Oromocto, but at least two of their sons moved to Carleton Co.
3. Stephen Kinney, b. in 1771; m. Merab, daughter of Capt. David Ives, a Loyalist from Conn. Stephen & Merab removed to Greenfield, Carleton Co., shortly after 1890. They had 10 children.
4. Israel Kinney. He married, Mar. 6, 1793, Abigail Cram. They remained in Oromocto. He died at an early age, leaving Abigail with 5 young children.
5. Nathaniel Kinney. He married, Jul. 18, 1794, Elizabeth Mills. She was born in Boston and came to N.B. with the Loyalists in 1783. They too remained in Oromocto where they had 9 children.
6. Susan Kinney. She married, Jul. 6, 1793, Elisha, son of John & Mary (Burrell) Shaw. They removed to what is now the Parish of Northampton, Carleton Co., shortly after 1800. They had 12 children. (see the third in this series).
7. John Kinney, b. in 1778. He married Phoebe, daughter of Edmund Tompkins of the Parish of Canterbury, York Co. They removed to Greenfield, Carleton Co., where they raised their family of 12 children.
8. Elizabeth Kinney, b. in Oct. 1780. She married, Feb. 26, 1796, Charles E. Boyer. They came to Victoria Corner, Carleton Co., and were the ancestors of the Boyers who live there these 170 years later, more or less.
9. Eunice Kinney, b. Apr. 9, 1782; m. in 1797, Nathaniel Churchill. They removed from Oromocto to old Wakefield shortly after 1800, and in 1831 they moved with most of their 12 children to Ontario.
10. Elijah Kinney. He never married; lived at Oromocto with his brother, Nathaniel. It is said he died at the age of about 26 years.
11. Asa Kinney, b. in May 1785; m. Aug. 19, 1808, Elizabeth, dau of Edmund Tompkins. He took his young bride to the log house he had built at the mouth of the Shiktehawk, just north of Bristol, and it was there that they lived the remainder of their lives. They had 8 children.
12. Mary Kinney, b. in Mar 1785, twin of Asa. She married a Sipprell, perhaps James, son of William and Sarah (Foster) Sipprell.
13. Abigail Kinney, b. May 18, 1789; m. Sep. 20, 1807, Henry A., son of John & Mary (Burrell) Shaw. They lived all their married lives at Lower Wakefield, and it was there that their 11 children were born. (see the third in this series).
14. Andrew Kinney, b. in 1762, after his father's death. He married, Feb. 22, 1815, Martha Webb. They lived in Oromocto until about 1825 when they removed to Greenfield, Carleton Co., where they lived the remainder of their lives. They had 10 children.
Later in this series there will be more on at least some of the descendants of the children of Israel and Susannah (Hood) Kinney.

6. Foster - 26 Sep 1974, p. 12
Benen Foster was born at Scarboro, Maine, Nov. 14, 1760, son of Isaiah and Lydia (Fogg) Foster. While living at Machias, Maine, in 1775, he volunteered and assisted in the capture of the British schooner, Margaretta, which was commanded by Capt. Moore. Afterward, he enlisted and served nine months as a private in Capt. Jabez West's Massachusetts Company, during which time he went on an expedition to the St. John River. He then enlisted and served two years or more as a private in Capt. Stephen Smith's Company, which was part of Col. John Allen's Mass. Regiment, and was in another engagement at Machias. (see the second in this series where Col. John Allen is also mentioned).
After the war, Benen came to the St. John River, where he married, May 20, 1782, Deborah, eldest daughter of Israel and Susannah (Hood) Kinney of Oromocto. (see the fifth in this series). Their first grant was one-third each of Lots 6 and 7 at Oromocto. After living there for more than 20 years, they removed to the Parish of Wakefield, Carleton Co., where they made their home on Lot 31 fronting on the west bank of the St. John River at Somerville, about three-quarters of a mile south of the covered bridge at Hartland. Benen probably was wounded while serving with the American forces during the Revolutionary War. The Veterans Administration, Bureau of Pension Records, Washington, D.C., shows that he applied, Dec. 4, 1832, while living in Wakefield, for a pension, and that a pension was paid from Mar. 4, 1831 until his death Oct. 24, 1843. Deborah then applied, May 21, 1844, while a resident of Houlton, Maine, for a pension, which was paid from Oct. 24, 1843, until her death Apr. 13, 1852. Benen and Deborah (Kinney) Foster had 12 children. They were:
1. Lois Foster, b. Apr. 21, 1783 at Oromocto, d. in 1811, aged 28 years. She married Lemuel Churchill, b. Feb. 20, 1777 at Yarmouth, N.S., d. in Ontario, Dec. 14, 1859. Lois left four children in Wakefield when she died, a daughter and three sons. Lemuel later married Mary Brown, and they moved to Ontario about 1831.
2. Lydia Foster, b. Jul. 15, 1785, at Oromocto, d. in 1880, aged 95; m. Oct. 19, 1802, Advardus, son of John & Mary (Burrell) Shaw. (see the third in this series). They had three known children.
3. Mary Foster, b. Oct. 17, 1787 at Oromocto, d. in 1868, at Millstream, Kings Co., N.B.; m. Ulas Heine, of Pennsylvania Dutch descent. They made their home at Millstream, and their 12 children were born there.
4. James Foster, b. Nov. 3, 1789, at Oromocto, d. in 1859. He married Mary Burtt. They lived for a number of years in Wakefield before removing with their family to Newburg, Maine.
5. Benen Foster, b. Sep. 30, 1792, at Oromocto, d. in 1880; m. at Oromocto, Aug. 17, 1815, Isabella Bliss.
6. Susannah Foster, b. Sep, 24, 1794, at Oromocto, d. in 1882; m. Enoch Gallop.
7. Israel Foster, b. Aug. 14, 1796, at Oromocto, d. in 1840.
8. Gideon Foster, b. Aug. 20, 1798, at Oromocto, d. in 1845.
9. Elizabeth Foster, b. Sep, 19, 1800 at Oromocto, d. Nov. 12, 1885 at Houlton, Maine; m. Israel, son of Stephen & Merab (Ives) Kinney (see the fifth in this series). He was born in May 1794, at Oromocto, and died Jul. 6, 1884 at Houlton. They lived at Wakefield for a number of years, and later made their home in Houlton. Like his grandfather, Israel Kinney was a blacksmith and for several years after his marriage worked at his trade at Upper Woodstock.
10. Japhthah Foster, b. Jan. 22, 1803, at Wakefield, d. Dec. 15, 1874, at Sacramento, California; m. Aseneth Ann (Annie) Hovey.

He went to California during the gold rush, and she joined him there later.
11. Moses Foster, b. May 7, 1805, at Wakefield; m. Sarah Wheeler.
12. Aaron Foster, b. Dec, 15, 1809, at Wakefield, d. same year.

"Editor's note: When the decision was taken by England at the close of the Revolutionary War to evacuate New York, several thousand Loyalists were shipped to Nova Scotia, which then included roughly the area occupied by the present provinces of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. In 1784, that part of Nova Scotia which lay north of the Bay of Fundy was set off as a new Province of New Brunswick, the dividing line being established at the Isthmus of Chignecto just north of the present town of Amherst. During the War the settlers on the Bay of Fundy were often pillaged and plundered by Rebel privateers from down the coast, mainly out of Machias, Maine, and the trading post at the mouth of the Saint John River operated by James Simonds, William Hazen and James White, was particularly vulnerable. Rev. William O. Raymond, LL.D., F.R.S.C., in The River St. John, ed. Dr. J.C. Webster, C.M.G., (1910; Sackville, N.B.: The Tribune Press, rpt. 1943), tells us that "late in the autumn (of 1778) an American sloop carrying eight guns entered the harbour. Her Captain, A. Greene Crabtree, proved the most unwelcome and rapacious visitor that had yet appeared. Many of the settlers fled to the woods to escape the vandalism of his crew. From the store at Portland Point 21 boat loads of goods was taken. The plunder included a lot of silver ornaments, fuzees and other articles left by the Indians as pledges for their debts." "Following that incident, William Hazen proceeded to Windsor, N.S., and urgently demanded protection. Col. Small, of the Royal Highland Emigrants, accompanied him to Halifax and by their united efforts the British government authorities were convinced of the necessity of immediate action. A considerable body of troops was ordered to the mouth of the river with directions to repair Fort Frederick, which the Rebels had burned in 1775, or build a new fort. General Massey chose Maj. Guilford Studholm as commander of the expedition. He was a capable officer and had previous experience as a former commander of the Fort Frederick garrison. His knowledge of the St. John River and its inhabitants, both whites and indians, made him particularly well fitted for the post. Maj. Studholm arrived at the mouth of the river during the latter part of November, 1778, with 50 men, a framed block-house and four six-pounders. They came in a sloop of war, which remained in the harbour for their protection until the next spring. He decided against repairing Fort Frederick and commenced immediately to construct a new fort on a new location. It was named Fort Howe. When the Spring Fleet arrived from New York in May, 1783, Maj. Studholm was still in command of the garrison at Fort Howe. One of the first and most urgent things to do was to find lands for these new arrivals. Much of the best land on the St. John had already been granted. However, a lot of it had been granted in large blocks to propritors who had undertaken to place tenants upon it but had for the most part not been very successful in doing so. In June, 1783, Maj. Studholm sent a party of four men up the river from Fort Howe with instructions to determine who was settled upon the lands in various townships and what title they had to those lands, if any. Their report to Maj. Studholm, usually referred to by family historians today as "The Studholm Report" is an important historical document. It is, in effect, a heads of households census, and in addition provides information about land title, the loyalty or otherwise of many of the pre-Loyalist inhabitants on the river, etc., that can be found nowhere else. The following is from Collections of the New Brunswick Historical Society (Saint John, N.B.: 1894, The Daily Telegraph Steam Book and Job Print, rpt. Lingley Printing Company Limited, 1969)."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
St. Johns River, June 30th, 1783. To Major G. Studholm, Commandant at Fort Howe, &c. Sir: --Agreeable to your instructions of the 15th inst. we proceeded up the River St. Johns on the 24th, and have endeavoured in the most accurate manner to collect the best information that was possible respecting the titles claims, characters, principles and deserts of those people who are settled on the lands commonly known by the appellation of Amesbury Tract, the ownships of Gage, Burton, Sunbury, New Town and the lands formerly granted to one McNutt, and after full examination report as follows:
Township of Burton.
24. Israel Kinney has a log house and framed barn, and about 15 acres of cleared land, which as chiefly done by the French and Indians. Has been on about 15 years and was a committee man. . . . The foregoing are all the claims and demands in the Township of Burton that came to our knowledge after strict enquiry. Those whose characters during the late troubles were uniformly loyal we have particularly noticed, with the claims of all who have any pretensions of title more than simple possession. We are, Sir, &c.,
Ebenezer Foster,
Fyler Dibblee,
James White,
Gervis Say.

An email (1/99) provides this account, without giving its source: "The first KINNEY in Canada was a gentleman by the name of Israel KINNEY, he was from Belfast Ireland. He was a Irish soldier who fought for the English under Command of General Wolfe he helped the English fight against the French on the plains of Abraham. On one of there sailing trips from England they encountered a early winter and were forced to harbour in Massachusetts, USA where they had to remain for most of the winter. It was here that Israel KINNEY met and married a lady buy the name of Suesanna HOOD. After the English had defeated the French, the English gave parcels of land to there soldiers so they would settle and colonize the land they had won from the French. Israel KINNEY and his new wife Susanna were given a parcel of land, which is where the City of Oromocto, New Brunswick stands today. Israel and Susanna had 13 children, it is said that all of the KINNEY'S today in Eastern Canada and along the eastern sea board of the United States are all descendants from these 13 children. My father's family are all descendants from the 13th child (Andrew KINNEY). It is also known that many of the descendants from the other 12 children of Israel KINNEY moved to various areas of the Eastern Sea Board of the United States. Also of particular interest is the various spellings of the name KINNEY. When Israel KINNEY arrived in Canada his name was spelled KENNY, it was on land deed documents pertaining to Israel KINNEY that the name was mispelled and a extra "E" was added so from there on the name was spelled KENNEY. It was not until my grandfather's era that the name was again mispelled on their childrens birth certificates to read KINNEY the first "E" had been changed to a "I". So since Israel KINNEY arrived in Canada there has been 3 different spellings of the surname. So today we still see 3 different spellings of the last name, however most are all still descendants of Israel KINNEY."
------------
Joan (j.macnintch@worldnet.att.net) offered in July, 2003: "Israel Kinney was born 6 Jan 1745 in Middleton, Essex Co., MA. His mother Rebeca Perkins was born 1725 in Topsfield, Essex Co., MA; she died 15 May 1774 in Topsfield, MA - her parents were Robert Perkins and Elizabeth Towne." Also see "The Four Israels of Massachusetts [Israel Kenney]," by Jeff Green, at http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~gkbopp/HENRY/Green_Four%20Israels%20of%20MA.htm. An Israel Kenney m. Unico White, marriage intention 11 Jan 1745 in Boston, MA - is he related to our line?
------------
"The Kenney Family -- A Monograph" by Mabel Gould Demers Hinckley, 1969, lists Israel as a descendent of Sir Thomas Keney of Kings Lynne, Norfolk, England, and that Sir Thomas's son John was the first generation in America. However, this monograph contains no documentation, and appears to rely on conjecture for Israel's parents and is doubtful.
------------
An online family tree is available 12/2001 at http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~sagadahoccome/kenney.html - also see http://library.uwsp.edu/pchswi/archives/bios/sutherland_1.html. Also see http://kinney-history.blogspot.com. Ancestry.com suggests the meaning of the surname: "Irish and Scottish: Anglicized form of Gaelic Ó Coinnigh descendant of Coinneach, an Old Irish personal name equivalent to Scottish Kenneth. This was borne by a 6th-century monk and saint who gave his name to the town of Kilkenny church of Coinneach.Irish: possibly an Anglicized form of Gaelic Ó Cionaodha descendant of Cionaodh, a personal name of unexplained etymology."
------------
24 Oct 1761 an Israel Kenney intended marriage with Sible of Uxbridge - listed in the Grafton. MA VR.
The surname is Celtic, either 'Cionaedh' (ardent love) or 'Cainneach' (chaste, devout) or from 'MacKenna' (son of Ceannach, "peddlar or merchant").br>-----------------------------------
"Sutherland-Stephenson Family History" at http://www.pchswi.org/archives/bios/sutherland/sutherland_5.html offers: "The town of Oromocto and its township of Burton, where the Kimballs and Kenneys lived, was near but downstream from Fredericton. Feeling of sympathy for the United States persisted among the settlers who had come from New England almost two decades earlier. During the American Revolution, Asa and Israel as members of the committee had made their feeling of support for the Americans known. Asa backed his opinions by taking the committees petition for union with Massachusetts to their legislature in Boston. But now, with Loyalists in dominant positions, the social and economic conditions in New Brunswick were changing. These two families followed different courses. The Kimballs moved away; the Kenneys stayed.
Israel Kenney was able to continue farming. In 1786 the government of newly formed New Brunswick gave him a grant at Oromocto, Lot 1, 170 acres, the farm he was occupying. The deed was made out to "Israel Kenny." He was allotted a larger grant of land, 227 acres, further up the Oromocto River in 1790, and his oldest son, Stephen, was granted the adjacent 235 acres.
The Kimballs, on the other hand, were unable to obtain the land they needed. In 1783, the time of the Studholm Report, three of their sons were of an age [1], or nearly so, to want to establish their own farms: Sam, 22; Richard, 20; and Asa, Jr., 15 or 16. As mentioned earlier, Richard and his brother, Samuel, had applied for land and been turned down. Their discomfort in living among Loyalists may have been increasing. In the next few years Asa and the entire Kimball clan with the possible exception of Samuel moved away. In the U.S. Census of 1790 many Kimballs were living in the area of Bethel in western Maine. Sarah Kenney, one of the oldest of 14 children, married Richard Kimball, second oldest of 9 children. Just when they married is not known, but during the year of 1785 two children, apparently not twins, were born to this couple. Sarah of course accompanied her husband and the other Kimballs when they moved to Maine.
With the Kenneys, the common interests of families that had sympathized with or even supported the Americans may have influenced the choice of spouses in the next generation. Sarah, as we have seen, married a Kimball. Susan and Abigail Kenney married men by the name of Shaw. (Francis Shaw of Maugerville was another who visited the Massachusetts assembly.) A genealogy notes that about half of the Kenney children found spouses among the Loyalists, as though this were unexpected. . . . "
