• Notes

  BIOGRAPHY: Joseph Kinnaman was born 3 February 1848 less than a mile north of Odon in Daviess County, Indiana. On 30 September 1883 in Odon, he married Ruth P. McCoy (born c. 1857 in Daviess County), a daughter of Hugh McCoy and (possibly) Eliza J. (?). Joseph and Ruth had two children, Omie (1885), and Porter.Joseph, perhaps, organized the Methodist Episcopal Church at Elnora, Indiana, and was, perhaps, the first school trustee of the Odon School Board incorporated in 1885. In February 1895, Joseph did leave the farm and enter the hardware business with George D. Abraham in Odon. After a year he began a furniture store in Odon with a Mr. Burrell, the firm being "Kinnaman and Burrell". Joseph was a Republican, and in 1883 was a delegate to the Republican County Convention. He was also a Mason, master of his lodge in Odon, and was a delegate to the State Grand Lodge Session in 1881. In addition Joseph was a constable of Madison Township. Joseph died 21 November 1936. There is a Joseph Kinnaman buried, with Ruth P., in Walnut Hill Cemetery, but this Joseph was born, according to his marker, on 9 February 1846.
