Idaho Daily Statesman 10 Feb 1905 Joseph Kinney dies in Oakland - Word was received in Boise yesterday that Joseph Kinney, the well known citizen, had died in Oakland, Cal, Wednesday morning shortly before 11 o'clock. He and Mrs. Kinney had gone to California about six weeks ago for the benefit of his health. The immediate cause of his death was heart failure, superinduced by asthma. Mrs. Kinney will arrive in the city Sunday afternoon with the remains. No arrangements have as yet been made for the funeral.
Mr. Kinney served with the Union army during the civil war as a teamster. He was discharged at Fort Laramie in 1866 and went to Silver Bow, Montana, where he mined for a short time. From Silver Bow he came to Boise in the same year and had been a resident of this city ever since. In 1878 he went into partnership with Lou Cryer. He moved to the northwest corner of Seventh and Main streets in 1892, and conducted a profitable business. Mr. Kinney was a director of the Intermountain Fair association and a valued member of the board. He built a splendid home on Warm Springs avenue some two years ago and owned some valuable real estate in Boise. Lengthy article.
Idaho Daily Statesman - 15 Feb 1905 The funeral of Joseph Kinney, who died in Oakland, California, last Wednesday, will be held at St. John's Cathedral this morning at 10 o'clock. High mass will be celebrated by Bishop Clorieux. Interment will be in the Catholic Cemetery.
Mrs. Kinney, who arrived with the body of her husband on Monday night said Mr. Kinney was stricken by an attack of heart trouble a week before his death. After being in a stupor for 30 hours, he rallied and was able to leave his bed and take exercise. A hemorrhage of the brain follwed and Mr. Kinney realized that his end was near. His only regret was that he could not return to Boise and say farewell to the many dear friends he left behind.
