General Notes: Husband - David Kennedy

---

He was born in County Monaghan, Ireland, there mar-ried, and in 1788, in company with his wife and one son, Robert, he immigrated to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where he found employment as a wheelwright, which trade he had learned in his native land. The eldest son, Robert, grew to manhood in Philadelphia, and engaged in teaming between that city and the western part of the State. His mother carried on a dairy in Philadelphia, and the parents and Robert combined their capital with the intention of purchasing a farm in western Pennsylvania. In 1800 they removed to Butler county, and purchased a 400-acre claim from Matthew Kelly, a Revolutionary soldier, situ-ated in what is now Muddy Creek township, and built a cabin. It was a log structure, twenty-six by eighteen, one and a half stories high, and finished in that crude manner in which nearly all of the early buildings were constructed. The father lived to see 200 acres of this land cleared and improved, and died while on a visit to the home of his son Edward, who resided a few miles distant in the same township. His wife had died previously. Both were members of the Presbyterian church of Montville, Lawrence County, and were interred in the cemetery attached to that church.
