General Notes: Husband - Richard Barry Kenly
About the time of his majority he engaged in the drug business in Greensburg, but shortly afterward left the drug trade and operated a general merchandise store for several years at Weavers Old Stand. After disposing of his store he purchased the Kern farm, which was situated one mile southeast of Greensburg; in 1855 he sold this farm to Robert Lowry. On April 1, 1856, Mr. Kenly removed to Ludwick, established a grocery and provision store, and at the same time opened the first retail lumber-yard in Westmoreland County, in which business he was engaged at the time of his death.
He and his wife had eleven children, five of whom died from one to seven years of age.
He was a ruling elder in the Presbyterian church. He was an ardent temperance man, an active democrat and a zealous Christian worker. He served seven terms as school director in Ludwick borough and was frequently a member of the town council. He was elected to the office of justice of the peace under Gov. Packer’s administration and served for five years in that office.
