John F Kennedy's Irish O'Kennedy Ancestors, Paperback – 2012 by Brian Patrick Kennedy. The first recorded Kennedy in Dunganstown, County Wexford, Ireland, was John Kenedy who was born in 1740. John Kenedy's headstone in Whitechurch graveyard near Dunganstown provides this record. He was the ancestor of President John F. Kennedy of the United States. John F. Kennedy's great-grandfather Patrick, grandson of John Kenedy, left Dunganstown to go to America. Where did John Kenedy's family originate? According to The Annals of the Four Masters the traditional homelands of the O'Kennedy sept were the Baronies of Upper and Lower Ormond in County Tipperary. At some time the ancestors of President John F. Kennedy left Ormond on a journey over the centuries that was eventually to take them to County Wexford. This book reviews and analyses available documented information from a number of centuries and provides a plausible explanation of who President John F. Kennedy's ancestors may have been. 252 pages
