Kennedy is a hamlet and census-designated place (CDP) in the town of Poland in Chautauqua County, New York, United States. The population was 465 at the 2010 census. From 1805–1841, the hamlet was known as Kennedy Mills. The name was changed in 1841 to Kennedyville. Eleven years later, the name changed again, this time to Falconer in honor of Robert and William Falconer. In 1860, on the request of an Erie Railroad official, the hamlet became Kennedy, in honor of Thomas Ruston Kennedy, the founder of the local mills. The name was promptly placed on the railroad station constructed in 1861.
