OK Steve, I found that there is a lot of info about REDMONDs that are linked to your line. But as you pointed out earlier the biggest problem will be to tell these 2 Kenneth REDMONDs in the PA,Mercer area apart.

It looks to me like they were cousins ... so they will have the same DNA. They were both born within a year of each other & they both married within a year of each other. One died in 1982 & the other in 1992 ... do you know when yours died ?

Please do try to get confirmation from your uncle Walter about who his grandfather was (Stephen or Walter ?) or even who his uncles were.

I am going to go over the info I have collected in case it shouts something to you

I found their marriage info ...

* 1931/08/05 PA,Mercer-Co Courthouse marriage license for Kenneth A. REDMOND & Edith PALMER;

* 1930/03/17 PA,Mercer-Co Courthouse marriage license for Kenneth REDMOND & Rosanna Marie HEDGLIN;
We know this last one is your but with which parents ?

-------

Here are the 2 SSDI data for them ...

* Social Security Death Index for Kenneth A. REDMOND n=29 Jun 1909 ss#191-03-7103 issued=PA
last-res=16137,PA,Mercer-Co,Mercer d=Jan 1992;

* Social Security Death Index for Kenneth REDMOND n=14 Nov 1908 ss#211-03-8978 issued=PA
last-res=16127,PA,Mercer-Co,Grove-City d=Sep 1982;

It is Stephen's family that has other connections to Slippery-Rock & Grove-City. I didn't find that for Walter's family. So I would theorize that Kenneth (son of Steven) is about 7 months older than Kenneth (son of Walter).

-------

On the 1930 Census I could only find one of the Kenneths & it didn't help because he wasn't married yet.

* 1930 Census#15 of PA,Mercer-Co,Mercer roll#2077 ed#42 p6b:

05 McWHERTER Jame

PA 20 REDMOND Kenneth (roomer);

Please let me know if you found the other Kenneth on the 1930 census !
