Photograph of Family Group Taken


A notable family reunion was held at the home of Mr and Mrs Edward Janvrin in Clyde Township Sunday. Five generations of the Kennedy family were represented.

Mrs Martha Kennedy, wife of the late Rober Kennedy, is a great, great grandmother, her son, the great grandfather, William E Kennedy of Sterling, Mr Kennedy’s daughter, Mrs William Beers, of Mt Carroll, the grandmother. Mrs Robert Carnell of Thomson, a great granddaughter of Mrs Kennedy, and her little daughter, Ivil, aged 7 months, were all present.

A photograph was taken of the above five persons representing the five generations.

Mrs Martha Kennedy, although eighty-five years of age, is still in very fair health. It will be remembered that her husband died less than a year ago, thus severing a marriage of over sixty years. Mrs Kennedy resides at the present time at the home of her daughter, Mrs Edward Janvrin.

It is the wish of The Sentinel and its readers, that Grandmother Kennedy may be spared to enjoy several more family gatherings.
