Notes form Familysearch:

The christening year documented is 1702. However, the birth year is 1703, after the christening year.
Also, the grandson's memoir, documented with the will, states John Kennedy Sr was kidnapped from Ireland as a child of 6-7 years old & was sold into servitude. But, the arrival note about his immigration states that he came in 1726, which would indicate he was an adult if the birth year is correct.

Are we dealing with two separate John's or is the documents attached to the wrong family-tree?
