HISTORY OF THE DESCENDANTS OF WILLIAM KENNEDY AND HIS WIFE MARY OR MARIAN HENDERSON, FROM 1730 TO 1880. By Elias Davidson Kennedy. 86 pages, originally published at Philadelphia in 1881. Reproduced on one microfiche 1988.

There were two Kennedy clans in ancient times, one of Irish origins and one native to Scotland. Many of the Scottish Kennedy's emigrated to the north of Ireland, and it is the descendants of one of these lines that is covered in this book. William Kennedy was born in Londonderry in 1695 and emigrated to Bucks County PA about 1730 with his brother Robert. The first couple of generations of descendants of Robert Kennedy are also listed in this book, though the bulk of it is devoted to William's descendants. Descendants are listed in tabular form, with the names, birth, death, and marriage information listed for each. Following the charts there is a brief discussion of the history of the Kennedy clan, and biographical notes on the more prominent individuals in the family.
