Ionia Sentinel, Thursday, November 12, 1903

Mrs. Eliza Kenny died Nov. 10, at 5:50 p.m. at her home, 345 South Jefferson 
street, after an illness of several weeks, the sufferings of which she endured 
with great patience and fortitude, and during which everything possible was 
done for her comfort.

She was the widow of Frank Kenny, the well-known tailor who worked for R.Hudson 
& Son and also for Mr. Mabley.  He preceded her to the better world on March 8, 
1880.  Mrs. Kenny was born in County Clare, Ireland, in October, 1840, and came 
to this country at the age of 13 years.  She was married in 1855 at Norwalk, 
Conn.  They came to Ionia in 1863, where she resided to time of her death.  To 
them were born eight children, six of whom survive: David F. Kenny, Mrs. Sarah 
J. Dillenbeck, John Kenny, Mrs. Frank Wirtz, William Kenny, and Mrs. Wm. 
Patterson.  Two children preceded her to the other side: Charles J. and Mrs. 
Mary E. Longe.  She also leaves a sister, Mrs. Mary O. Day, and thirteen 
grandchildren to mourn her death.  

She was always a very devout Catholic.  Her kind and jovial manner won many 
friends, by whom she will be greatly missed.  Her life was one continual round 
of good deeds.
