Pg. 642, JOSEPH KENNEDY, farmer and gardener, post office Duquesne, was born Sept. 9, 1830, in Indiana Co., Pa., a son of DAVID and CATHARINE (SNYDER) KENNEDY, of German descent. They reared four children: JOHN (deceased), MRS. ELIZABETH CARSON, JOSEPH and DAVID. The last named serviced in the 103d P. V., under Gen. McClellan, and died in the service. The father was for many years superintendent of a coal mine at Hanging Rock, Ohio, and died at Portsmouth, same state, at age over 70 years.

MR. and MRS. KENNEDY are members of the M. E. Church, of which he is trustee and steward, and superintendent of the Sunday School. He is a republican. MR. KENNEDY has a farm of 47 acres, having sold 29 acres to the new steelmill, thus being the first to encourage the starting of that enterprise and the consequent founding of Duquesne.
