General Notes: Husband - William A. Kennedy


He was educated in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, where he learned the cooper's trade, and followed it for ten years. In April, 1841, he came to Independence township, Beaver County; he owned a farm of 160 acres, that township, and another of 143 acres in Raccoon township. In 1878 he went to New Brighton, where his son, Dr. Robert S., kept a drug store. Two years later he moved to Beaver, where he was in partnership with his son in the office of the Star. After seven years he returned to the farm, where he then remained. He was a member of the United Presbyterian church; in politics a Democrat. In early life he was a lieutenant of a militia company.
