Evening Times, Cumberland, Maryland, Tue 12 Mar 1946: 
"Piedmont, W. Va.- Funeral services for the Rev. Timothy B. Kenny, 
76, widely known Catholic priest, who died yesterday in University 
Hospital, Baltimore, where he had undergone an operation from 
which he failed to rally, will be held Thursday morning at All 
Saints church, Baltimore.  The body will be taken Thursday 
afternoon to St. Peter's church, Westernport, where it will lie in 
state until Friday at 9 a.m. when a requiem mass will be celebrated.  
Burial will be in the church cemetery.  Father Kenny was born 
August 3, 1870, in Piedmont, the son of Timothy Joseph and 
Katherine (Graney) Kenny. He studied at St. Peter's parochial 
school, Westernport, and at St. Charles College and St. Mary's 
Seminary.  He was ordained December 17, 1898 by the late James 
Cardinal Gibbons.  His first assignment was as an assistant at St. 
Paul's church in Baltimore.  After eight months he went to St. 
Ann's and served twelve years before going to All Saints.  During 
his third of a century as pastor of All Saints, on Liberty avenue, 
Baltimore, Father Kenny built the church, the parish house and the 
rectory.  Keenly interested in the arts, he had traveled 
extensively in this country and in Europe, especially Italy.  
Father Kenny was the last member of his family.  Hammill Kenny, of 
Piedmont, a member of the faculty of Fort Hill High School, 
Cumberland, who has a leave of absence to attend the University of
Maryland at College Park, is a nephew.  Father Kenny visited here 
frequently and was a guest at the home of his cousin, P. J. O'Brien, 
Luke, three weeks ago.  Thomas F. and John J. O'Brien, both of 
Piedmont, and William L. O'Brien, of Rowlesburg, W. Va., are also 
first cousins."
