Eady was a big sister in a family that consisted of 10 children when she married John Keneley in 1809. It is clear that she taught, fed, played with and prayed with them.
When the western lands opened up in Tennessee, she moved with her husband and their children to Lauderdale County Tennessee. She was the first to teach school in the county, in 1825, at her home about 2 ½ miles north of the town of Double Bridges.
She and John had three children:
Hugh Keneley, died when he was 19 years old.
Susan Catherine, married Dr. Paschal W Saunders in 1833.
Edith Ann, married Dr. Arthur Isaiah Ellis, February 16, 1848.
Eady raised her granddaughter Ann Ellis, when her mother Edith Ann Keneley Ellis died on November 27, 1848, shortly after Ann was born.
