KEENEY, Martin, grocer, Harrisburg, was born in Tuscarora township,
Bradford county, Pa., August 23, 1848. He is a son of the late Luther and
Arletta (Camp) Keeney. He was brought up on the farm and educated at the
district schools in his township. He was engaged until 1892 in farming
in Tuscarora township, where he still owns a well cultivated farm. In 1892
he sought a change of residence and occupation. He relinquished farming
and came to Harrisburg, and in January, 1896, embarked in the grocery business
in that city.
Mr. Keeney was married, October 15,1873, to Isabella C., daughter of
William and Mary (Watson) Bergstresser, referred to in another place in
