Birth* | August 1878 | Nellie Kensill was born in August 1878 at Philadelphia, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.1 |
She was the daughter of Samuel S. Kensill and Sarah V. (?).1 | ||
Note* | Given marriage information in the 1900 census and Nellie's date of birth it is possible she was 1)born before Samuel S. Kensil and Sarah V. married or 2) Sarah V. is not her mother. Samuel indicated he was married 23 years in 1900 and Sarah said she was married only 20 years so perhaps he was briefly married to Nellie's mother before marrying Sarah V.1 |

Was Cut in Two William Kensill's Deliberate Plunge in Front of a Train What is thought to be the case of a deliberate suicide occurred yesterday forenoon when William Kensill, aged 65 , of 1507 East Montgomery avenue was run over and instantly killed by a coal train on the Reading Railroad at Frankford avenue. Witnesses of the affair say they saw the man standing alongside the tracks waiting for the train to approach. As the train neared him he was seen to fold his arms and plunger in front of the cars. The wheels passed over his back almost cutting his body in two. Kensill had been suffering from paresis for some time. He had a wife and children.5,8,9,10,11 |
