recovered. About a year ago he returned and had been in his usual health

died a short time before noon Friday. A few days before his death, he
traded his Louisiana land for a farm near Mt. Zion and some property in Decatur.

From: Decatur Herald & Review: 1941
Bernard H. Bresnan, 69, Dies.
Requiem high mass for Bernard H. "Bun" Bresnan, 69, retired farmer and
horseman and earnest Democratic party worker, was celebrated at 9 a.m. Wednesday
in St. Patrick's church in Decatur. Burial was in St. Isidore's cemetery.
Mr. Bresnan, who lived in Decatur, had been in failing health for several years.
Sunday, his condition grew alarming and he entered St. Mary's hospital where he
died at 9:15 a.m. Monday.
Keenly Interesed in Horses.
Born in Dalton City, Aug. 3, 1872, a son of John and Catherine Bresnan, he
developed a keen interest as a youth in horses and over livestock and during his
many years as a farmer in the Dalton City neighborhood won a reputation as a
keen judge of the values and marketing possibilities of livestock. He
bought great numbers of horses and mules for the Allied armies in the first
World war.
In the 16 years that he lived in Decatur, much of time in semi-retiremant, his
fondness for horses remained. Where there was a horse or mule sale, he
usually could be found, and he always was ready for a trip to any Central
Illinois race meeting that friends might suggest. As an ardent
Democrat, he aided in accompllishing a series of party victories in Macon county
and was rewarded by appointment as a deputy game warden, a position he held
until his health started to fail.
On Sept. 28, 1897, he married Mary Agnes Henneberry.
He leaves his wife; three daughters, Mrs. Edward Cahill and Miss. Dorothy
Bresnan of Decatur and Mrs. T. L. Sheehan of Dalton City; one son Bernard J.
Bresnan of Decatur; two grandchildren and one sister, Mrs. G.W. Halliburton of
Wichita Falls, Texas.
Ambrose Magner Henneberry, 82 died Feb. 6,
1962.
Former resident of Dalton City, died Feb. 6th in Chicago. He had been
living with his daughter, Mrs. Ralph Webster. Mr. Henneberry was the last
surviving member of the James Henneberry family. He was a
brother of the late David Henneberry of Bethany.
He had worked as a broker for many years in Chicago. Services were held
Saturday in St. Phillips Catholic Church in Chicago.
John Kinney & Mary Bresnan were the parents of
Edward Kinney who married Emma Henneberry and Daniel Kinney who married Lizzie
Henneberry.
From Bethany Echo: Friday, April 27, 1906
John Kinney ( Oct. 6, 1832 - April 27, 1906)
John Kinney died Friday evening about 5 o'clock at his home one
quarter of a mile east of St. Isadore Church. His death was the result of
injuries sustained in a run away the day before. Thursday, he was engaged
in pulling hedge with a traction engine. When driving to a well to fill
the tank, the mules hitched to the tank, ran away overturning the tank which
fell upon Mr. Kinney and was dragged over his body. As he was able to walk
to his home and seemed to be but slightly hurt, no danger was anticipated until
Friday afternoon when in act of taking a glass of water he fell to the floor in
a faint. Father Dougherty was called and administered the last sacraments.
When Dr. Davis, who was phoned for, arrived life was extinct.
Mr. Kinney's wife died suddenly about five months ago. He leaves five sons
and three daughters, Edward, Dan, Will, John and Nean, Mesdames
P. Fogarty, and L. Bolanger and Sister Isabella of the Ursuline Convent,
Collinsville. He retired from active farming some years ago. He was
about 73 years old. He was born in Ireland but came to America when quite
a young man. He had many friends and, what can be said of very few, no
enemies. He was noted for his honesty, his generousity and his charity.
The funeral was held Sunday at 10 a.m. at St. Isadore's Church and was largely
attended. Rev. J. J. Dougherty officiated. The regular choir
under the directorship of Miss Lizzie Conlin furnished the music. The pall
bearers were Bryan Conlin, John Fitzgerald, David Henneberry,
Patrick McCaughey, Michael Griffin and James Smith.
Over 50 other Henneberry's and other
relatives are buried in the St. Isidore cemetery.
