General Notes: Husband - John McKenna


He had two brothers and each of them received a twelve-hundred-dollar legacy from their father upon reaching their respective majorities. Each in turn invested the money in a brass and bronze business founded by Alexander, the eldest. In 1856 it began operations as the A. and J. McKenna Company. Two years later Thomas became a member and the venture was conducted by the three brothers until the death of John in 1874.
