Mrs. James Kenny nee Mary Long was born in Kent county, Ontario Canada, May 26,1842, being in her 78th year/' She "was married in Canada to Martin Curry, coming to this county with her husband in 1867-53 years ago next June. They, settled in the town of Nasewaupee, where her husband died in 1876. In 1880 she was United in marriage by Father Blume in this city to James Kenny and continued to make her home in Nasewaupee until about seven years ago, when the couple retired from active work and came to the Fourth ward to make their home. Mrs. Kenny was the mother of eight children, five of whom survive. These are James Curry of. this city, John Curry .of Virginal City, Miniru Patrick Curry' of Sevastopol,:, Katharine at home, and Mrs.'Mary Goss* of Nasewaupee.
The funeral services were held on Tuesday morning at Corpus Christ church, Sawyer, Rev. H. Pfeifer officiating. Interment took place in the Catholic cemetery in the town of Sevastopol, a large cortege of relatives, friends and neighbors following the remains to their last resting place.'
When Mrs. Kenny came to this county it was a wilderness and it was such pioneers as she who made it what it is today. Raising a large family of children and assisting on the farm was not easy task in the early days, but she lived to enjoy the fruits of her labors in the latter years of her life.
