John B. Kennedy born July 28, 1801

___________  Kennedy born March 10, 1804

NOTE: Could this be Richard? Sic

NOTE: No.  This is Jesse, son of John and Jane.  He moved to Mississippi, and 
the
above date is confirmed by the date on his tombstone there.  Tombstone has 
disappeared, but a descendant has the date which her mother copied from it years 
ago. - FRH

Nancy Kennedy born Aug. 21, 1807

NOTE: married late.  She was the second wife of James A. Hodges and the mother 
of Sally Hodges Loftin.  FRH

Walter Kennedy born March 7, 1812

NOTE: Father of my great-grandmother Harriet Catherine Kennedy Daly. - FRH

Richard Kennedy married Sarah Loftin 1834

NOTE: Richard was born Jan. 1, 1817 according to my information, and this 
appears
confirmed by census data. His mother was fifty years old when he was 
born--stretching it, but not impossible.

Eliza Kennedy born Feb. 8, 1815

Eliza Kennedy died Oct. 26, 1846

NOTE: This appears to be Mrs. Parrott's note - daughter of Jessie Kennedy and 
first wife of Walter Kennedy buried in Daly burying ground)

They had five sons, three of whom died young and childless.  I think two died 
in the Civil War. - FRH

NOTE: There are no parents named in the Bible but grand children testify that 
this note is correct.  Jno. Kennedy II born July 16, 1766 - Died Nov. 3 1840 
sic, married Jane______. Born Feb. 17 1764  Died Feb. 19, 1833 sic.  Buried on 
Daly land.

No.  I copied these dates myself from their tombstones, more than twenty-five 
years ago.  You have the death dates of John and Jane switched. Jane appears as 
head of household in census of 1840; she died a few months
later. I am about eighty percent certain that Jane's maiden name was Jones.  
She is
called Jenny in her husband's will. - FRH
