Kennedy was born in Melbourne to Margaret (née Cleary) and Martin Joseph Kennedy. His family moved to Western Australia at a young age, and after leaving school he began working for Western Australian Government Railways. Kennedy eventually became an official for the Amalgamated Society of Railway Employees.[1] He entered parliament at the 1924 state election, defeating Henry Maley (the sitting Country member). Kennedy was re-elected in 1927, but at the 1930 election lost his seat to the Country Party's William Patrick.[2] After leaving parliament, Kennedy worked for the Main Roads Department. He died in Perth in November 1939, aged 55. Kennedy had married Ursula Mary Stone in 1914, with whom he had three children. Through his wife's sister, he was a brother-in-law of John Willcock, a Labor premier.[1] References1. ^1 Maurice John Kennedy, Biographical Register of Members of the Parliament of Western Australia.
