Found this one last night. Not sure what to make of the stated age at time of death, as his tombstone has 1829

The remains of Mr. Ambrose McKenzie, whose death occurred at his residence on Monday evening in Garrett county, several miles west of this city, after an illness of about two weeks, were brought to this place yesterday morning at nine o'clock for burial. The funeral took place from St. Michael's Catholic Church. Father Stephen J. Clark, assisted by Rev. Jos. Nolan, conducted the services. Interment was made in St. Michael's cemetery. The deceased was one of the most prominent men in Garrett county and was well known here. He was seventy years old at the time of his death, and is survived by his wife and a number of children, all of Garrett county. A large concourse of people attended the funeral.

Notes:

Sponsors of the Children of John M. McKenzie (abt. 1795) Which Circumstantially Suggests that Samuel McKenzie (b. 1751) (“Old Sam”) was John M.’s Father - by Michael A. McKenzie May, 2014

1.Before we begin with the sponsors of John M.’s children, note that John M. named his second child Samuel. May be a clue.
2.May, 1819, Samuel McKenzie, sponsors: Samuel McKenzie and Hanna Logston. Is this Samuel (1850, “Old Sam”, John’s father and this boy’s grandfather?
3.June, 1821, Harriett McKenzie, sponsors: Moses and Catherine McKenzie. I think this was Moses Ignatius McKenzie and his wife, Catherine. Moses Ignatius was a known child of Samuel ("Old Sam") and would have been John M.’s oldest brother.
4.September, 1823, John M. McKenzie, Jr., sponsor: Helen McKensey. Query: is this a misspelling of “Ellen”? If so, this may be John M.’s sister, Eleanor (Ellen_ and one of Samuel McKenzie’s (1751) daughters. The fact that there is only one sponsor reinforces that Helen/Ellen was not married and coincides with the information I recently sent you with respect to Samuel F. McKenzie (b. 1805).
5.September, 1840, Peter McKenzie, sponsors: May and Basil McKenzie. The only Basil of which I am aware was the son of Moses Ignatius McKenzie referenced above. Basil would have been John M.’s nephew, and the grandson of Samuel McKenzie (1751).
6.May, 1844, Francis McKinzie, sponsors being Sam’l F. McKinzie and Reb. Garlitz. This could be one of two people: Samuel F. McKenzie (abt. 1791), who was John M.’s brother or Samuel F. McKenzie (1805), who I have proposed was the son of Ellen McKenzie of Samuel (1751).

Conclusion
These are the recorded baptisms of John M.’s children in which I can identify the sponsors. In every one that I can identity, there is some connection to Samuel McKenzie (1751). Ergo, I conclude that Samuel McKenzie (1750) was the father of John M. McKenzie (abt. 1795).

John married Hannah Tomlinson in 1816. Hannah (daughter of Jesse Tomlinson) was born about 1794; died on 10 Oct 1838. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

In October, 2018, Ann McKenzie Stansbarger sent the following email to Michael McKenzie concerning the name of hannah Tomlinson. There are references to a Hannah "Tumbleson" on pages 79 and 81 of Western Maryland Catholics - Koch and Davidson. That is a misspelling.

Ann wrote:

A few years back I dug into the Tomlinson’s of western Maryland and looked at census records for every Tomlinson family over an extended period of time for girls of the right age. Then I looked for records of marriages and burials for all the girls of the right age, in order to rule out the ones that were not Hannah. It came down to two candidate Tomlinson families with girls of the right age who were not otherwise accounted for.

Then I looked at the names of the children of John M McKenzie and Hannah and compared them to the names of the brothers and sisters in the two candidate families.

There was a clear winner. The children’s names matched one family. It was the Tomlinson family who owned the Red House Inn on the National Road in Garrett Co. The father’s name was Jesse. They were not Catholi
