Narrative

[Paragraph biography of Robert F. Kemp from the New Pittsburg section, Jackson Township chapter of The History of Randolph County, Indiana, p488.]

Robert F. Kemp was born in Maryland in 1809, married in that State, emigrated shortly afterward, to Richland County, Ohio (in 1835) and settled in Jackson Township, near New PIttsburg, in 1844, residing there still. They have had twelve children, ten of whom are grown, married and now living, most of them in Randolph County, Ind. They are like most of the settlers in Jackson Township, Democrats in politics. The aged couple, threescore and twelve years old, now keep house by themselves, the children all having made them separate houses and left the aged parents in the isolation of solitary home life, as in the olden days full fifty years ago, without not even a grandchild out of the numerous flock to keep them company. Long may they thus be able to care for their own wants, but if a feebleness and decrepitude come on, may they find an abundance of willing hands and ready steps to minister to the wants of their weakness and sorrow.
