Maloney Family
At this point, all we have
about the Maloney family from Jefferson County, Tennessee,
is the names of two brothers, John and David. This
information and family link comes from the application for
a Revolutionary War widow's pension by Margaret Kinkead,
whose first husband had been John Maloney. In this
application, David Maloney provided an affidavit and
limited information about his late brother, John. All other
information on David is from census records, which indicate
that he (and, by extension, probably John) was born in
North Carolina. In addition, Jefferson County marriage
records from the early 1800s include a listing for
Elizabeth Maloney; we are including her here as a possible
sibling and member of this family (particularly since she
also married a Kinkead).
