William Francis Kavanaugh was one of 8 known children born to James William Kavanaugh and Margaret Anne Kiernan. He was married to Katherine "Kate" Kavanaugh between 1883 and 1886 in San Francisco, California.

William and Katherine had two children: Son-Albert and a Daughter-Catherine.

After his wifes death and before his death his daughter Catherine was sent to St. Elizabeths Infant Hospital and she stayed there becoming a Sister of Charity. I have been unable to find a death or burial for her and in the last census record they spelled her name Cavanugh.

Albert has been difficult to track as well but I suspect he is buried in the Holy Cross Cemetery MEMORIAL ID 105021130. I have no solid proof it is him. But in his photo he certainly looks like William.

The family members spelled the name Kavanaugh, Kavanagh, Cavanaugh and Cavanagh so they have been difficult to track.

He married Tennessee Dixie Belew about 1901 in California.

He committed suicide by drowning himself in the Feather River.

His siblings are as follows:
Arthur Washington Kavanaugh 1866
Baby Kavanaugh 1868-1868
Mary E. Kavanaugh (Wilson?) 1868-1950
James Kavanaugh 1871
George Washington Kavanaugh 1872-1872
Walter Kavanaugh 1875-1899
Margaret Anne Kavanaugh (Wilson)1878-1961
