Biography
sketcher, was born in New South Wales, daughter of Arthur Campbell Baird and Isabella, née McIntosh. Her parents had come from Ayrshire, Scotland in 1832 and lived at The Springs, Dubbo. Kennedy was tutored by the stepdaughter of John Maugham, who owned the neighbouring property, Dundullimal, and her traditional cross-stitch Berlin wool on linen sampler incorporating the alphabet, numbers and motifs such as birds, baskets of flowers, hearts and a moral verse is signed and dated '26th October, 1852 Dundullimal’ (p.c.). Her detailed, naive watercolour of Dundullimal homestead probably dates from later in the 1850s. Both it and the wooden slab homestead it depicts are now owned by the National Trust (NSW).
