31. ↑ Source: #S105 Page: Vol 2 Data: Text: JAMES H. KEEN AN is a member of St. Anthony's parish and CONT a representative Catholic citizen of Indianapolis. His father, CONT Thomas Keenan, was born in Monaghan county, Ireland, in the CONT year 181 5, and there grew to manhood, learning the trade of stone- CONT mason. In 1850 Thomas Keenan married Miss Ann Hanlon, a CONT native of the same county. CONT Lawrence Keenan, the father of Thomas, and John Hanlon, CONT the father of Ann, were prominent, well-to-do and highly respected CONT (48UJ CONT CONT (.» CONT CONT JAMES H. KEENAN, CONT INDIANAPOLIS, IND. CONT CONT CATHOLIC CHl'RCH OF INDIANA. CONT fanners, possessing more of this world's goods than fell to the lot CONT of the majority of their countrymen of those days. Mr. Hanlon, CONT particularly, was a man of much ability and energy, and was very CONT prosperous. Both were devout Catholics, leading lives of excep- CONT tional purity and uprightness, and were earnest workers in the CONT cause of religion in their respective parishes. They reared and CONT educated their children with extreme care, and had the satisfaction CONT of seeing them develop into good men and women and practical CONT Catholics. Ann was the oldest child of John Hanlon, and inher- CONT ited in a marked degree her father's natural ability, force of char- CONT acter and high sense of honor, as well as fine personal appearance. CONT Soon after their marriag'e Thomas Keenan and his young wife came CONT to the United States, locating in Providence, R. I., where he CONT engaged in contracting for stone work. CONT In 1857 Mr. Keenan, with his family, removed to Cannelton, CONT Ind., where he resided for a number of years, and in which city CONT he acquired much local prominence and accumulated considerable CONT property. In 1883 he and wife came to Indianapolis at the solici- CONT tation of their two sons, who had previously become residents of the CONT Capital city, and here they made their home with their sons until CONT death; the father passed away in 1886 and the mother followed CONT him to the grave the year after. Their remains are buried in the CONT Catholic cemetery at Cannelton. CONT Thomas Keenan was a man of good education, correct habits, CONT the strictest integrity, was very affable in manner, and was highly CONT esteemed by all who knew him. He was often importuned to CONT accept nominations for political offices, but always declined, hav- CONT ing, as he said, an aversion to the methods used in electioneering, CONT though feeling deeply grateful for the expressions of confidence and CONT good will from his fellow-citizens. There was one office, however, CONT which he held for many years — that of trustee of St. Patrick's CONT church, at Cannelton, and was also treasurer of the parish most CONT of the time that he was a trustee. He was always active in all CONT work connected with the church. Mrs. Keenan, also, was zealous CONT in church work; she was, however, exceedingly domestic in her CONT tastes and habits, being a model wife and mother, always striving CONT to make home pleasant and attractive, devoting unusual attention CONT CONT THE CLERGY AND CONGREGATIONS, CONT to her children and seeing to it that they received a thorough Chris- CONT tian education and training. Mr. and Mrs. Keenan were the par- CONT ents of five children, three sons and two daughters; but of these CONT three died in childhood: Mary at the age of three years, Law- CONT rence, aged si.x, and Anna at the age of five. James H. and John CONT C. are the only surviving members of the family, the latter being CONT now a resident of Joplin, Mo., and cashier of the Joplin National CONT bank.
