Kenagy, Emanuel L. Kenagy was born Mar. 13, 1850, near Bellefontaine, Ohio; died at his home at Albany, Ore., Mar. 31, 1927; aged 77 y. 18 d. In 1866 he moved with his parents (Bishop Jacob C. and Elizabeth Yoder Kenagy), to Cass Co., Mo., where he united in marriage with Sister Lydia E. King, Dec. 19, 1871, to which union were born six children of whom 4 survive (Alice Hostettler, Millie Oesch, David O., and Salome Stutzman). His first wife died Mar. 6, 1883 and on Feb. 6, 1886, he was married to Martha E. Hostetler of East Lynn, Mo., to which union were born 9 children, eight of whom survive (Urie E., Levi Irwin, Wm. G., Geo. J., Sarah Birky, Amos R., Elden L., Thomas R.) He united with the Amish Mennonites in his youth and was a member of the Albany Mennonite Church at the time of his death. He leaves his wife, twelve children, two brothers, two sisters, 51 grandchildren, and 20 great-grandchildren. The funeral was conducted from Albany Mennonite Church by N. A. Lind and J. E. Whitaker. Text, Col. 2:10. Final funeral and burial at Zion Church, near Hubbard Oreg., conducted by A. P. Troyer, E. Z. Yoder, and F. J. Gingerich. Our Bro. Kenagy was concerned for the welfare of the Church, and being the eldest son in a bishop's family, seemed to have cultivated keen interest in her many problems; kind in his counsels, reserved in his deliberations, yet courageous in his convictions. He was alert in mind and active in body until the end, when the heart failure relieved him of the cares of this life "to be with Christ which is far better.."
