OLIVER KENNEY Oliver Kenney was born to Tilten and Florence Kenney in Tulsa, Oklahoma, April 14, 1927. Oliver grew up around Caplinger Mills and Cowan area, and grad- uated 8th grade. His parents passed away when he was a young child. He lived with his Aunt and several other family friends until he turned 18, and then moved to Minnesota to be a farm hand with his brother in 1945. Oliver has lived in several states including California, Colo- rado, Texas, Arkansas, New Mex- ico, Idaho and Louisiana. He moved back to Missouri in the late 1960’s where he bought a farm and had a lumber mill outside of Jerico Springs. There isn't a job Oliver can’t do. He has been a car- penter, truck driver, mechanic, farmer, oil field worker and several other titles over his lifetime. Oliver married his wife Ann Teresa in 1946 and the couple have five children David, James, Paul, Walter and Annette. He has several grandchildren, great-grandchild, nieces and nephews. Oliver never had time for hobbies, but always made time to fish. He enjoys being outdoors, staying active, visiting with friends and homemade apple pie!
