Abstract:

William Rand Kenan, Jr. graduated from UNC in 1894 and after his death left an endowment with the N.C. State Dairy Farm. In 2012, the museum was established and designed to help both kids and adults understand milk production. Kenan helped discover acetylene but was predominantly interested in the raising and research connected to Jersey cows.
