From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Kennedy baronetcy of Newtownmountkennedy was created in the Baronetage of Ireland on 25 January 1666 for Robert Kennedy, member of the Irish House of Commons for Kildare Borough.[1]

The 2nd Baronet was a judge, Second Baron of the Irish Exchequer. On the death of the 4th Baronet in 1710 the next heir was under attainder and the baronetcy was consequently forfeited.[1]
