According to Mecklenburg County, North Carolina: Abstracts of Early Wills 1763 - 1790 (1749 - 1790), Mary Curran listed her daughter, Esther Kennedy and grandsons Daniel, Joseph, and Samuel Kennedy as heirs to her estate. Upon further research, it has been discovered that Esther was married to Joseph Kennedy, Sr. Their son Samuel Kennedy (1766-1796) is a potential ancestor.
