My geaat-grandfather is Jacob Kannofsky who changed his name to Kenyon. My grandmother Anna is his daughter. If you go to my Aitken-Sadlo tree, you can see what I have. I have a picture of the "Schenectady cousins" but don't know who they are. I can share that pix with you via email. Have you found out any info that you could share with me?

Thanks!

Ruth Kelly, married to Alva Kelly was my great, great grandmother. Until I found your query on Google I was running up a blank wall trying to discover her parents. Presently, I have no knowledge of Sarah. Of Ruth's parents I would give a guess that they would be Issac & Esther as Ruth & Alva named one of their children, "Isaac." Speculation. Need documentation, however, to be valid. What other info can I share with you? Thank you.

Was Sarah Kenyon the mother of James Webster?

clcolegrove — 2010-02-13 23:05:05Z

I am a descendant of James Webster and Hannah Woodmansee through their daughter Hannah Webster (b. 8 Jun 1747). I am curious about something in the Webster family tree I have. James Webster (c. 1717-c. 1777)'s father was John Webster (c. 1684-1783). I have two wives recorded for him, a Ms. Rogers, daughter of a James Rogers (d. 1719), and a second or first wife named Sarah Kenyon (1684-c. 1723), the daughter of John Kenyon (1655-1732) and Anna Mumford (1668-1746). Does anyone know which wife was the mother of James Webster? Online searches seem to throw in question whether or not John was even married to a Kenyon. Also, there seems to be possibly some issue as to John Kenyon's wife, Anna Mumford. Was this Anna Mumford really his wife, because she was born in Rhode Island, but her daughter and husband in Oldham, Lancashire, England? My tentative conclusion is that there is no reason to dismiss Sarah Kenyon being John's wife. In fact, I think perhaps Sarah was the mother of James and other children and Ms. Rogers was either his first or second wife. What do any Webster Family researchers think?

Violet Kohler (03 Apr 1913 - Jun 1977) was born in Baltimore, MD to Adam Henry Kohler (born 18 Dec 1878, Balt. to Frank Kohler) and Annie Schoeler (born Dec 1885, Balt.)

Re: Kenyon - Rhead

menomonie — 2010-01-02 01:14:01Z

Robert Rhead and Delia Kenyon had a daughter Phebe 1815. Phebe is the sister or a step sister of my GGreatgrandfather Aden Rhead born 1812. I do not know if Delia is the mother of Aden. He was born in Yonkers NY. He had a son Truman Rhead born 1832, in NY, my G grandfather. I think Phebe was born in MI and married a Benjamin Hornbeck. She named one of her sons Aden. Does this give you any needed info?

Re: Kenyon book

rockydell — 2009-12-29 05:09:45Z

Hi Peter!
The book Usergolds referred to is Kenyon Family History through Azariah 1769-1848, compiled by John R Kenyon, selfpublished in 1999. I've been able to access American Kenyons by Howard Kenyon through ancestry.com, as it's been digitized. Lewis and Lois (Hill) Kenyon (1774-1850) (according to the Schaap Family Tree on Ancestry.com) are linked with Enos and Diana (Johnson) Kenyon (1797-1887). That Lewis Kenyon is listed as 11115 in American Kenyons, but no marriage or descendants are listed for him. So I'd be interested in the Kenyon Family History-- if it tracks that Lewis Kenyon's descendants.
With thanks,
David

Re: Kenyon book

RobertEKenyonIII — 2009-12-29 01:56:07Z

Dear David,
I have a copy of Captain Howard N. Kenyon's 1935 book entitled American Kenyons, published by The Tuttle Company in Rutland, VT. Offset versions (like mine) are available.
I have checking the book's index and no mention of an Enos Kenyon. Plenty of Enoch's, but none in your time frame or with the wives' or children's names you mentioned.
Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance. You might want to contact Richard R Kenyon at either RicherRKenyon@msn.com or RRKenyonGen@cs.com: he's the only Kenyon expert that I know.
Best regards,
R. E. (Pete) Kenyon III

Re: Enos Kenyon et al (NY>MI>IA>MI>)

rockydell — 2009-12-28 02:46:41Z

I'm interested in this Enos Kenyon's parentage. His dates are 1797-1887 (His daughter Susan is my mother's mother's mother (I like the Swedish way of doing this!).

I have found three possible sets of parents: Lewis/Louis and Lois (Hill) Kenyon; Lewis and Hannah Kenyon; or a David Kenyon. I have no authoritative information on any of the parents.

I also wonder if the Michigan death date belongs to the Enos Kenyon b1800 MA.

Thanks for considering my request, David

Re: Kenyon book

rockydell — 2009-12-28 02:24:14Z

Hi! Did you ever sell the Kenyon book? If not, can you tell me if it includes an Enos and Diana (Johnson) Kenyon and their family? Their family includes Susan, George, Harry, Harriet, Charles and John (b 1829-1845, the first in Mexico, Oswego, NY, the last in Coldwater, Branch, MI). (I'm one eighth Kenyon, my mother Alice Smith, being one quarter Kenyon, her mother, Lilla Briggs, being Susan's daughter).
I'm interested in connecting Enos Kenyon (1797-1887) with his parents in a somewhat authoritative way. I've found three different possible sets of parents for Enos. One is Lewis/Louis and Lois (Hill) Kenyon; another a David Kenyon; another Lewis and Hannah (unknown) Kenyon.
If it goes in that direction, into Oswego county, NY, and Branch county, MI, I'd really be interested in the book or a photocopy.

With thanks, David

Looking for informatiom on Robert Edward Kenyon

Bellayou — 2009-11-29 16:41:29Z

Searching for information on Robert Edward Kenyon born July 13, 1908 in Herkimer, NY. I have the birth certificate to prove date & place of birth. He was the son of Clarence Kenyon & Margaret (Hill) Kenyon. Robert had a sister Bethel Kenyon who married Carl Baker, they lived in Ithaca NY. Robert came to Baltimore Maryland abt 1937, he married Violet C. Kohler abt 1939, they are my parents. Robert worked for Glen L. Martin for a short time, not sure of dates. I may be the only child of Robert, my DOB 3/1/43. Robert disappeared sometime around 1949, then in 1959 he made a short visit abt a week to his sister (Bethel) in Ithaca NY. never to be heard from again. I think he did not participate in the SS program due to his life style. I wish to learn if Robert had other children. If anyone has information I would appreciate it.

Obit: Ina (Kenyon) Weishaar (1913-2009)

wilsonje19 — 2009-10-09 21:33:22Z

Agnes Ina Weishaar, daughter of Albert and Margaret (Kyne) Kenyon, was born July 9, 1913 in St. Michael, Nebraska. Ina’s family later moved to Turin before settling near Ayrshire. Ina graduated from Ayrshire High School. Following graduation, Ina attended Iowa State Teachers College where she received her teaching degree.

On June 23, 1945 Ina was united in marriage to Leonard Weishaar in Mallard, Iowa. To this union five children were born. Ina taught country school for a few years before going to teach at South Clay Community School.

Ina was a devoted member of Sacred Heart Catholic Church and Altar Society. She was a 4-H leader and a member of Great Oak Township Homemakers for many years.

Ina and Leonard enjoyed square dancing as well as ballroom dancing. She loved playing bridge and was a member of the Ayrshire Bridge Club. Ina also played bridge in the Palo Alto County Hospital Auxiliary card marathon.

Ina loved being with her family. She was very proud of her children’s musical talents. Ina also had great pride in watching her grandchildren as they played outside at the farm. She will be remembered by her great grandchildren as “Farm Grandma”. She was very proud of that and it always drew a smile when they called her that.

Ina passed away Wednesday, October 8, 2009 at the Palo Alto County Hospital at the age of 96. She was preceded in death by her parents; an infant son, Leo; her husband, Leonard; two sisters, Erma Kenyon and Eileen Molitor; two brothers, Ed and Lyle Kenyon; as well as other family members.

She is survived by her children, Lois Dotson and her husband, Dennis of Milford, IA, Donna Weishaar of West Des Moines, IA, Darrel Weishaar of Aysrhire, IA and Gary Weishaar and his wife, Kay of Perry, IA; her grandchildren and great grandchildren, Brad and Heather Dotson and their children, Eli, Olivia and Isaac; Mitch and Andrea Dotson and their children, Jordan, Michael, Jenna and Wyatt; Jill Dotson; Amanda Dotson; Jessie and Kelly VanDeWalle; Layton Weishaar; Alyse Weishaar; and Ethan Weishaar; a brother, Kenneth Kenyon; as well as many other relatives and friends.

John S and Harriet L Kenyon, NYC

dakota825 — 2009-10-08 21:59:16Z

Looking for information regarding John S and Harriet L. They are buried in Trinity Cemetery in NYC.
from the vault;
Harriet L. Kenyon DOD 2-10-1872
John S. Kenyon DOD 1-23-1882
Don't have birth dates but would guess 1805-1815 based on census records.

Think there is a link between Harriet and Charles Willson, as he is buried in the vault with them and his wife. The surving Kenyon children authorized his burial there.
The Willson family was in NYC till 1840's when they moved to Rochester.

Any help would be appreciated.

Obit: Eileen (Kenyon) Molitor of Iowa (1921-2009)

wilsonje19 — 2009-09-24 01:27:00Z

Eileen Mary (Kenyon) Molitor, daughter of Albert and Margaret (Kyne) Kenyon, was born March 1, 1921 in Turin, Iowa. She received her education in Rodman, graduating from Rodman High School in 1938. Eileen continued her education at Iowa Teachers College, graduating in 1939, with her teaching certification.

Eileen taught country school near Ayrshire in 1939 and near Laurens from 1940 until 1945. She was employed as a grade school teacher in Ringsted in 1946, Hartley in 1947 and then was a substitute teacher in the Ruthven school system for many years after that.

On June 2, 1948, Eileen was united in marriage to John B. Molitor at St. Mary’s Catholic Church in Mallard. To this union nine children were born.

Eileen was a devoted mother to her nine children, meeting their needs and caring for them, yet she always had time to help any child that needed someone. Eileen’s devotion to her faith and her devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary was and is a beautiful example to many.

She was a faithful member of Sacred Heart Catholic Parish in Ruthven as well as Catholic Daughters of America. Eileen enjoyed playing Bridge and was a member of Bridge Club. She was a 4-H Leader for many years. Eileen loved the time she spent with her family and especially enjoyed Square Dancing with John. Eileen always had several cats around the farm that she loved and cared for.
Eileen died Monday, September 21, 2009 at her home near Ruthven, Iowa at the age of 88.

Re: Lost Freeman Kenyon in 1840 Erie Co., NY

Marilyn_Kenyon — 2009-07-12 16:21:06Z

This is seven years since you posted your question, but I do believe I have found some information on your lost Freeman Kenyon of Erie County, New York.

The 1820 Census shows a listing for Fruman (sic)P. Kinyon of Holland, Niagara, New York, age range 45 and up. Niagara became Erie County not long after this census was taken. Also listed is Arnold Kinyon of Holland, Niagara, whom you also inquired about. He is listed in the age range of 26-44. In addition, there is also a Samuel Kinyon on the line right above Fruman (Freeman), listed in the age range of 45 and up.

Perhaps you can help me. I am also interested in these Kinyons, as I am trying to track down information about my gg grandfather, Lyman Kenyon /Kinyon/ Kinion.

Lyman alternates, on his census records, the reporting of the birthplace of his father. Sometimes he lists it as New York and other times as Wales. It has been suggested that perhaps his father was born in Wales, New York. Since there is nothing to support that he was born in Wales of the United Kingdom, then my attention has turned to these little known Kinyons / Kenyons of Holland and Wales, Erie County (formerly Niagara County), New York.

The pages that I believe contain the information I need are 17, 18 and 34 concerning William Kenyon (1758-1837).

Peter was born in Kirkcowan, Wigtownshire and his father Samuel McClure (1774-1828) was a farmer in Derry (also in Kirkcowan).

Looking for Harry Earl Kenyon Sr. Ancestors

judyroseb — 2009-02-24 20:21:37Z

My grandfather was Harry Earl Kenyon. He was born in 1890 in Pueblo Colorado. His mothers name was Florence, however she went by Virginia and "Jennie". Virginia was her middle name. She also used the name Read (Rhead, Reade, Reed). (The family bible shows his mother as both Florence Virginia Read and "Jennie" Read, but my grandmother, Winnie, mis-spelled names and often recorded the wrong dates.) I was told when I was a child Jennie had been a travelling stage actress and met Harrys dad in Texas or somehwere in the south. I found a 1910 census showing my Grandfather,Harry, and his mother together in Portland Oregon, and she listed herself as a widow. My grandfather was 20. He married my grandmother Winnie V Rambo in 1912 and they lived the rest of their lives in Portland Oregon. I know that Harry moved around a lot as a child and I can't find any records of his Father. I am not sure if Kenyon was his mothers maiden name or her married name. No birth certificate is available for Harry in Colorado, I have already checked. Harry on 1920 census, listed his father as born in England, but his mother stated on the 1910 census that he was born in New York. She was born in about 1863 in Pensyvania (per census reports), so I think his dad was lkely about the same age. Does this sound familiar to anyone?

I am trying to compile a complete list of all the descendants of Confederate American Civil War veterans living in Australia and New Zealand. It will be part of a book on the Confederates from these countries. If anyone could provide me with the names, city and state in which any of these descendants live it would be greatly appreciated. Please include information as to how you know they are descendants. jamesmgray@bigpond.com

Hello George,

This is the KENYON message board, we do not deal with your names, have you tried another board?

My father was George A Shultz, my mother Orpha Jean Yeager. I am Junior. What relationship, if any do we have? Any and all info you have on this line I would appreciate. Anything I can do for you needs only to be asked. I never saw a picture of my grandfather, Leroy, until I saw your postings of the wedding pics. Thank you very much.
