From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

KILKENNY Township, settled in 1856, was named by its Irish people for a city and county of southeastern Ireland. The city, in sections 22 and 27, was platted in 1877 and was incorporated June 3, 1883. Among its first settlers was Dennis Doyle (1818-1902), born in Kilkenny County, Ireland, who came to the United States in 1851, settled one mile west of the present city site, in section 21, and opened a store in his home in 1857, where he taught in the first school and became the first postmaster, serving 1857 to 1888; he was the first township clerk and served as a state legislator. Doyle was the first to marry in the community; Catherine Raway, born in France in 1839, was his wife. The Minneapolis and St. Louis Railroad station was named Washburn until Doyle requested the change to coincide with the post office name.
