Robert Roxburgh Kennedy's Family in Service
Life stories for 4 (out of 6) sons of Robert Roxburgh Kennedy and Isabella Glass nee Kydd, who all survived, and their son-in law, who did not. Life story requested and has now been added to the site for John (who did not serve abroad so has no Medal Roll entry). The other 2 sons are missing from this group because Frederick William cannot be positively matched with any of the life story entries for these names, and Norman was to young. Further details to be added.
