I have found a Walter O Kenedy in the 1840 census but not in the 1830 and 1850 census. He
shows to be 20 to 30 yrs old and is married with a son under the age of 5. It also shows
a 50 to 60 yr old female to be living with them. His wife is also 20 to 30 yrs of age.
Does anyone have anything on this individual? The person I'm looking for was born in
KY in about 1814 and shows up in LA in 1845 when he married a Eliza Ann Keller in
Opelousas, LA. The 1850 & 1860 census and the marriage license show the name to be
Kenedy. I have found no other trace of him until that date. The name changed in the
census to Canady after 1860 and that name has been used since. I gave that because that
could actually be the
name the information could be under. Any assistance anyone can give will be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks
Tim Canady
