about 40 miles from Carlyle. Also it is known that Ella married
a Dr.
McGAFFIGAN, and the name of Dr. McGAFFIGAN appeared in a list of
businessmen in the book, HISTORY OF MARION AND CLINTON COUNTIES,
IL,
published in 1881. I didn't find Jesse O. KENNEDY's name but the
name of
David KENNEDY appeared in this list of businessmen as a stock
dealer and
shipper. It is known from Jesse's obit that he was one of seven
children, and it's possible this David KENNEDY may have been one
of his brothers. Would like to know more about these families.
