Kathleen "Kick" Kennedy

- Kathleen Agnes Cavendish, Marchioness of Hartington (née Kennedy; February 20, 1920 - May 13, 1948), also known as "Kick" Kennedy was an American socialite.
She was the second daughter of Joseph P. Kennedy Sr. and Rose Kennedy as well as a sister of former U.S. President John F. Kennedy and Senators Robert F. Kennedy and Edward M. "Ted" Kennedy and the wife of the Marquess of Hartington, heir apparent to the 10th Duke of Devonshire
When her father was serving as United States Ambassador to the United Kingdom, Kathleen made many friends in London and was the "debutante of 1938".
Working with the Red Cross, she began a romantic relationship with Lord Hartington, whom she married in May 1944.
He was killed on active service in Belgium only four months later. Kathleen died in a plane crash in 1948, flying to the south of France while on vacation with her new partner, the 8th Earl Fitzwilliam.
Kathleen Agnes Kennedy was born at home at 83 Beals Street in Brookline, Massachusetts on February 20, 1920, the fourth child and second daughter of Joseph P. Kennedy Sr. and Rose Fitzgerald. She was nicknamed "Kick" because of her "irrepressible nature".
Kathleen was especially close to her older brother, John F. Kennedy, known as "Jack". Her other siblings were Joseph Jr., Rosemary, Eunice, Patricia, Robert, Jean and Ted.
Kathleen was educated at Riverdale Country School in the Riverdale section of the Bronx, New York City. She also attended Noroton Convent of the Sacred Heart in Noroton, Connecticut, and the Holy Child Convent in Neuilly, France.
On May 13, 1948, Lady Hartington and Lord Fitzwilliam were flying from Paris to the French Riviera for a vacation aboard a de Havilland DH.104 Dove.
At 3:30 in the afternoon, their plane took off, reaching an altitude of 10,000 feet (3,000 m).
Approximately one hour into the flight, radio contact was lost with the plane when it entered the region near Vienne which was also close to the centre of a storm.
The plane's four occupants endured twenty minutes of severe turbulence which bounced their small plane up and down as much as several thousand feet at a time.
When they finally cleared the clouds, they instantly discovered the plane was in a dive and moments away from impact, and they attempted to pull up.
The stress of the turbulence, coupled with the sudden change of direction, tore loose one of the wings, followed by both engines, and finally the tail.
The plane's fuselage then spun into the ground seconds later, coming to rest nose-down in a ravine, after striking terrain at Plateau du Coiron, near Saint-Bauzile, Ardèche, France.
Lady Hartington was instantly killed, along with Fitzwilliam, the pilot Peter Townshend and the navigator Arthur Freeman.
Her father was the only family member to attend the funeral, arranged by the Devonshires. Rose Kennedy had refused to attend her daughter's funeral, instead entering a hospital for medical reasons.
Happy 104th Birthday Kathleen Agnes Kennedy Cavendish! February 20, 1920❤

I was watching one of the walking videos I subscribe to the other day and the narrator mentioned the Cavendish estate and land holdings, etc when a spark came to me: I thought ah-ha that is the family Kathleen Kennedy married into before her and her young husband's tragic deaths. This melded quite nicely with that story as I had never seen her final resting place. Thank you for your due diligence!
Your welcome...the church is in a beautiful location

Beautiful yet tragic wow. Loved the scenery the buildings and surroundings. From Skye of Victoria Australia
Thank you for your kind words and watching the video 📹 😊 🙏
I love this story. I love these old cemeteries in the UK. I do graveyards too on my site. Love grave wandering.
Thank you....there are some fascinating graves and Graveyards around....check out my Watson Fothergill video.....the start of this was filmed at Church Rock Cemetery in Nottingham...an awesome Cemetery...thank you for watching 👀 😀
@@johnosgraveyardjaunts2235 I will. Thanks

@@johnosgraveyardjaunts2235 loved it , I never really followed the Kennedys but they seem to be cursed they have had thier fair share of tragedy , shared your channel all over Facebook and my community page fingers crossed it brings you more luck x
@@cemeteriesdownunder9247 thank you that's really kind of you to try to help my channel 😀
beautiful Church and story thank you
Thanks Kim 😊
What a beautiful place, I loved the Kennedys
Thanks Sue...they were all extremely Characterismatic...and Joe Kennedy was persecuted initially for just being Irish...before he and his family became incredibly successful...You have to admire his tenacity and resilience in the face of huge adversity !
Thank you for this video. In her memoir, "Wait For Me!" Deborah Mitford, 11th Duchess of Devonshire, talks about Edensor a lot, but this is the first time I have seen this church and country graveyard. In the film of Robert Kennedy visiting Kick's grave in 1964, I think the woman with Robert and Ethel is Deborah.

Thanks 😊
She was called “Kick” bc that’s the way JFK said her name when he was a little boy
Cool...I did not know that..thank u 4 sharing
I have never heard or read that. I have read several books on the Kennedy family, JFK and 2 biograhies of Kathleen Kennedy, she was called Kick because of her personality. She was JFK's favorite sister, they were very close and both a little rebellious. When JFK got the news that his sister had died, accoriding to an aide that was with him, his eyes filled with tears. In the words of the aide "They say Kennedy's don't cry, don't believe, John Kennedy cried for his sister Kathleen that morning, I saw it.

This family had very tragic death.
Definitely
First I wanna congratulate you for hitting 200 👍👍 great job 👏👍
I believe the Kennedys were cursed but the fact I believe is to be cursed one more than likely has had to do some bad stuff not saying all of them were bad but one pays for the sins of the father sometimes is what I’ve always heard.
Anyhow take JFK now not a bad man overall really not but he did cheat on his wife (well Marilyn Monroe, who knows sadly I might have cheated as well) 🤣🤣 not saying he deserved to die (that was terrible) but that added to whatever else the family did probably sealed the poor man’s fate.
Simply the code I live by is “if you live without honor you will die without dignity”
Goes back to “do unto others as you’d have them do unto you” I believe
Great video Johno excellent as always ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
