"D. P. KENNEDY, M. D., was born in Morgan County February 19, 1845 and is the son of Luke C. and Jane (Blockford) Kennedy, who were born and married in Kentucky, but were early settlers of Jefferson Township, this county, where the father still resides. The mother died in 1854, leaving seven children, of whom D. P. is the youngest. The early days of Dr. Kennedy were passed on the home farm and attending the district school. At the age of seventeen, he enlisted in Company H, Seventieth Indiana Infantry, in August, 1862, and served three years, taking part as private and non-commissioned officer in the fights at Buzzard Roost, Resaca, Golgotha Church and Peach Tree Creek; he was 104 days under tire in the Atlanta campaign, and went through with Sherman to tixe sea; he saw the surrender of Johnston and was in the grand review at Washington. At Golgotha, he was shot through the nose and mouth; his muster-out took place in June, 1865. On his return, he farmed in Jefferson Township one year; then attended and taught school two years; then commenced the study of medicine at Paragon with Dr. John Kennedy, with whom he remained nearly three years. He graduated from the Cincinnati Eclectic Medical College in 1870, returned to Paragon, and for seven years was in practice in partnership with his brothel'. In March, 1877, he came to Martinsville, where he has ever since enjoyed an extensive and lucrative patronage. He is a member of the State Eclectic Medical Society, of the G. A. R, and K. of P., and in politics is a Republican. In 1871, he married Miss M. Olive Chambers, who has borne him two children — Alexander R. and Park W. Mrs. Kennedy is a native of Hendiicks County, Ind., and is a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church."
