The children and grandchildren of Joseph Patrick Kennedy and Rose Elizabeth Fitzgerald are included in the Kennedy family tree. Joseph Patrick Kennedy and Rose Elizabeth Fitzgerald, the grandchildren of proud Irish immigrants, were the patriarch and matriarch of the large and influential American Kennedy clan. Their legacy to the United States is immeasurable as the parents of nine children, including our 35th President, John F. Kennedy, Robert F. Kennedy, and Edward M. "Teddy" Kennedy. Other notable Kennedy family members include First Lady Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis and Eunice Kennedy, founder of the Special Olympics.
