Notes 
Title: Notes
Text:
From GRADUATES OF THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA 1798-1851, Taken from Historical Sketches of North Carolina by Col. John H. Wheeler, published 1851 and re-printed 1925: William W. Kennedy listed as an 1830 graduate. I cannot be certain that this is the same person as William Wesley Kennedy; however, considering his family's wealth and prominence at that time, as well as his age (which would have been about right for a college graduate in that part of the nineteenth century), I think it is a strong possibility that this is William Wesley Kennedy. (http://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/nc/orange/school/unc1851.txt) Listed in 1850 Census of Tippah County Mississippi, p. 477b, line 14: Kennedy, W.W., Age 34, Male, Gun Smith, North Carolina (birthplace). Kennedy, Cynthia W., 30, Female, Georgia (birthplace). Kennedy, Oliver S., 9, Male, Alabama (birthplace). Kennedy, Narcissa, 7, Female, Mississippi (birthplace). Kennedy, Adalia P., 5, Female, Mississippi (birthplace). Kennedy, Mary E., 3, Female, Mississippi (birthplace). Kennedy, Lutitia, 1, Female, Mississippi (birthplace). We can, therefore, pinpoint W.W. Kennedy's move from Lauderdale County, Alabama to Tippah County Mississippi as taking place between 1840 and 1843. It is interesting that W.W. Kennedy continued the "family business" of gun- smithing. There is some confusion regarding exact spellings and constructions of the unusual names of his children.
