The Kennedy Clans
Home in ireland

indeed, it was none other than the
famed p. ]. Kennedy, who was born in
Boston in 1858, ten years after his
father, also named Patrick, had left
the auld sod in DungenstOwn for the
new world. According to farmer
James, Congressman Jack stayed for
tea, looked over the grounds and took
some photos Of the present-day out
house which was part Of the farm
dwelling where his great-grandfather
was born and reared. James reports
that he has heard nothing further
from cousin Jack in the intervening
13years.
James Kennedy's 32-acre farm is
somewhat smaller than average for
the part of Ireland County Wexford
in which it's located. James keeps
about 20 cows, a flock of hens and a
few pigs, grows mainly oats, wheat,
potatoes and cabbage. With the excep-
ton Of a daughter Peggy, 10. who
works at a gas station in nearby New
Ross, James's wife and children help
with the farm work, make a modest
living from the land. The present
master of the Kennedy manSe took it
over from his mother in 1885, expects
his son Pat will take over from him.
The thought that he might be the pos
SCISSOR of a future tourist attraction
doesn't seem to faze James. As far as
he's concerned, anyone who wants to
make the trip is welcome.

DUNGENSTOwN, IRELAND
0NE SUMNER day in 1047, thin,
. unassuming young man appeared
at the door of the farmhouse of James
Kennedy of Dungenstown, in the
Southeast of Ireland. Announced the
visitor: I'm John Kennedy from BOs-
ton, and believe this is the old Ken
nedy homestead from which my great
grandfather emigrated to East Boston
in 184S." A Aedgling Congressman.
then, Jack Kennedy was on q visit
to Ireland, staying at one ofthe castles
of the Duke of Devonshire, whose son
was married to one Of the Kennedy
sisters: Aided by a letter from an
aunt in Boston, Jack was able to pin
point the location of the 32-acre
Kennedy farm, which family lore
reported to be the seat of the clan.
A few minutes conversation with
farmer Kennedy led to the conclusion
that the Irishman, though not previ-
ously aware of the connection, was
indeed a second cousin, twice re-
moved, of his American caller. Delv-
ing way back into his memory, James
recalled that in 1912, when he was IA,
another Kennedy had come calling at
the homestead. He remembered the
name Patrick Kennedy.
THAT was my grandfather" re-
piled Representative Kennedy. And,

Thread for Sewing
TOday'S Fabrics

Determine the thread you
use by the type Of fabric you
are using. Nylon and dacron
threads have strength and
dry quickly. Mercerized
thread has less strength and
dries more slowly but offers
greatest variety in color
matching. Silk thread is a
good compromise.
The synthetic or silk
threads have more Wearabil-
ity for the use with 100 per
cent synthetic fabrics or for
blends with a high percentage
of synthetic fiber.
When stitching with nylon
or dacron thread, use a felt
pad on the spool pin of the
machine. This prevents the
thread from unWinding too
fast. Place the spool with the
notched side up so the thread
doesn't sag. Cut nylon and
dacron thread; never try to
break it since this may cause
puckering.

a year or two after the Ebe-

which was erected in 1928.
1t is now a church for the

area. All day meetings, din

Some of the original lum-
Der is still in the church and
according to one of the men,
bers, the original floor was
removed a few weeks ago.
The old lumber could be seen
stacked back of the church.
1t has served it's purpose since
1929.
A short distance back of
Hickory Springs Church, is
where John T. Murrell the
most crafty and pitiless rob-

chain, and valuable pieces of
jewelry, have been found at
this spot, years later. Jewelry
which Murrell and his gang
had stolen from some unlucky
traveller, who never reached
his destination.
The little church today is
well kept, nice and clean, by
the colored people who are
members.
