Born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, McKeehan received an Artium Baccalaureus degree from the University of Pennsylvania in 1897 and a Bachelor of Laws from the University of Pennsylvania Law School in 1900. He was in private practice in Philadelphia from 1900 to 1923.[1] On March 1, 1912, he, along with William W. Montgomery and future United States Supreme Court Justice Owen J.
