Biographical / Historical

The materials only had Mrs. Oren E. Kendall, but Ruth's name was located in the Ministers and Missionaries Benefit Board (MMBB) collection at ABHS. Her maiden name is listed as Ruth M. Day and she was born April 2, 1870. She maried Oren E. Kendall on June 7 1900. Kendall was pastor at First Baptist Church, Plainwell, Michigan and that is where the materials in the collection are from.

Kendall is listed as passing away in 1954, and not leaving a wife, so Ruth's death date is unknown.
