Former Maryland Lt. Gov. Kathleen Kennedy Townsend’s daughter and grandson are missing after authorities say they were seen struggling to return to shore in a canoe near Herring Bay, a family member confirmed Friday.

David McKean says his wife, Maeve Fahey Kennedy Townsend, 41, and son, Gideon Joseph Kennedy McKean, 8, are the people last sighted 10 miles south of Annapolis near Herring Bay.

McKean declined to comment further.

Anne Arundel County fire officials say a concerned citizen called 911 around 4:30 p.m. Thursday to report that he saw the woman and her son in a small canoe or kayak from the Columbia Beach community pier.

But ok for her to leave DC and go to Maryland more space for kids. But not ok for others with 2nd residence.

Drowned while traveling in canoe on choppy waters to retrieve a ball (wtf?) has gotta be the dumbest/most random Kennedy death. I know Sports Authority is probably closed but damn.

Nothing has topped the 'Michael Kennedy playing catch with a football on snow skis going downhill near a tree line' freak death so far in that clan. The ball, canoe, cold temp, and high winds is close up there though.

Surprisingly few understand the low survivability in cold water unless wearing full protective gear.

I was about to make that exact same point. And wasn’t Michael Kennedy drinking heavily while playing snow-ski football that day?

Heavily drinking concerning the Kennedy clan is always the default position.

Hard to believe that they went directly into the Bay in that kind of weather.

Geez. Political hatred destroys thought and kindness. And runs on both sides of the aisle. A young mom and her little boy lost their lives.
