After her husband died in 1879, Margaret filed for a pension due to her son's death in the waning days of the Civil War. Many letters and affidavits were exchanged with the Pension Bureau. However, Margaret died before the matter was resolved.
A Green Township neighbor of at least 35 years, George Brindle, affirmed that while Margaret's father was alive, Foster Kennedy worked as a day laborer on the family farm from about 1857 to 1870. At that time he ceased work due to "infirmity." Brindle stated that Foster was a weaver by trade and had a hand loom in his home, and he had a cancerous affliction of the face.
