Early lifeKennedy was born in Maryland in 1780. He lost his parents in his early life. He entered as a boy on board the frigate {{USS|John Adams|1799|2}}. At the Battle of Tripoli Harbor in 1804, in the First Barbary War, Kennedy was gunner's mate on board and was distinguished by his valor and intrepid ardor in the performance of duty. He was promoted to midshipman on 22 November 1805.[2] On 9 June 1810 Kennedy was promoted to lieutenant.[2] Early in 1813 he was appointed to the command of the schooner {{USS|Nonsuch|1813|2}}, but was never permitted to go to sea. Transferred to the frigate {{USS|Constellation|1797|2}} at Norfolk ready for sea under Captain Charles Gordon. But Constellation was closely blockaded by a British Squadron and failed to get to sea. In April 1814, he moved to Lake Erie and was there until the end of the war.[3] On 5 March 1817, he was promoted to master commandant,[4] and to captain on 24 April 1828.[2] East India SquadronU.S. trade with the Far East was limited, but for those who risked long voyage to trade fur, sandalwood, and cotton goods for Chinese silks and tea, the results were very profitable. Indeed, stories about the riches of Far East created the national myth about the vast potential of the China market. In an effort of turn the myth into reality, in 1835 President Andrew Jackson sent diplomatist Edmund Roberts in the Peacock commanded by lieutenant C. K. Stribling, accompanied by the U. S. Schooner Enterprise, Lieutenant Commanding A. S. Campbell, both under the command of Commodore Kennedy,[5] to Chochin-China, thus established the East India Squadron.[6] Kennedy died on 28 March 1844.[2] References1. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=94413949|title=Capt Edmund Pendleton Kennedy (1780 - 1844) - Find A Grave Memorial|website=www.findagrave.com|access-date=2017-09-08}} 2. ^1 2 3 {{Cite web |url=http://www.history.navy.mil/books/callahan/reg-usn-k.htm |title=US Navy Officers: 1775-1900 (K) |work=history.navy.mil |accessdate=30 August 2010 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20130902225443/http://www.history.navy.mil/books/callahan/reg-usn-k.htm |archivedate=2 September 2013 |df= }} 3. ^{{cite book |title=Army and Navy Chronicle |volume=Volume 6 |page=341}} 4. ^{{Cite web |url= http://www.ibiblio.org/pha/USN/1824/NavReg1824.html |title=Naval Register for the Year 1824 |work=ibiblio.org |date= February 2, 1824 |accessdate=30 August 2010}} 5. ^{{cite book |last= Ruschenberger |first= William Samuel Waithman |authorlink= |title= A Voyage Round the World: Including an Embassy to Muscat and Siam in 1835, 1836 and 1837. |url= https://archive.org/details/avoyageroundwor00ruscgoog |date=1838 |publisher= Harper & brothers |location= |oclc= 12492287 |page= |pages= |chapter= |accessdate= 25 April 2012 |edition= |quote= }} 6. ^{{cite book |last1=Symonds |first1=Craig L. |authorlink1= Craig Symonds |last2=Clipson |first2=William J. |title=The Naval Institute historical Atlas of the U.S. Navy |page=64 }} Further reading
