KENNEDY – Everett, Amherst & Pictou, NS
Submitted by Don Kennedy Feb-04

If you can look for a forfather of mine it would be greatly appreciated.It seems to appear that my family tree goes in two directions, just want a verification from records around 1869 in regards to a Kennedy”Everett”- should have had a family of about 3 boys and 2 girl and wife of course ,some of the sons names were Howard for sure, and maybe Munroe, and Alexander , with daughters’ names being maybe Tina and Clara. Everett’s first name appears in a family bible as a buriel date/year of 1869.My son for some reason has been led in another direction.It has been mentioned by an uncle of mine that, there perhaps was an Everett living in Amherest area before the family moved to Alma,Pictou County. Any information, if any ,along this line again, would be appreciated! Please forward any information on to Don Kennedy at “E” mail address: kathy.kennedy@sympatico.ca
