Daniel McCoy KENNEDY

(8 Dec 1852 - 24 Feb 1939)

There is a letter to the editor in the Kennedy surname file at the Historical and Genealogical Society of Indiana, Pennsylvania written 17 February 1939 by Florence B. Taylor, Lyndhurst, Ohio. She was a former neighbor of the Kennedy family and wrote a tribute to Daniel Kennedy. She was close in age to his daughters Martha and Eva and describes her observations of the Kennedy household. It gives a very interesting picture of the household and the interactions between the Kennedy family members.
