I am looking for the death date and birthplace of Jep Kennedy and Bettie A. Higginbotham Kennedy. One son, Grant Kennedy, lived in Coeburn, VA (Wise Co.) buried in Kilgore Cemetery in Coeburn in the early 40's. Banner & Coeburn are the only cities in VA that we can even hear about that might be some connection. We think Banner is in Russell Co., maybe not. Jep and Bettie also had about 12 other children. Jep was born approx. 1852. Would like any information, stories or dates.
