Andrew ( better known as Andy) Kettle was a Dubliner and the right hand man of Parnell on land question and tenant issues.
He was one of the founders of the Dublin Tenants’ Defence Association, and in that capacity was one of the deputation that induced the youth Parnell to challenge the Tory hold on County Dublin, in the contest against Colonel Taylor, which was Parnell’s baptism of fire in Irish politics. When Davitt unfurled the banner of the Land League he joined him in the foundation of the organisation, and was one of the most prominent members of the Land League Executive. Upon the arrest of Parnell, Dillon, Davitt, and the other leaders in 1861, he assumed the control of the organisation; and was one of the signatories of the No Rent Manifesto.
