| Notes |
- John attended Yale and received a law degree from Columbia. After graduating, John devoted himself to business interests and politics. He served two terms as a representative in Congress (1883-1885 and 1887-1889) and two terms as senator (1899-1911). When he wasn’t in Washington, he lived at Liberty Hall and was famous for his annual New Year’s reception for his political supporters at Liberty Hall. When Senator John Kean, a bachelor, died, the house was passed to his nephew, Captain John Kean, who was the son of Hamilton Fish Kean and Katharine Winthrop Kean.
