Seventh Generation

2797. Jarvis Danforth LEONARD¹⁵⁴⁹ was born on 17 January 1828 in Taunton, Bristol Co., MA. He died on 1 August 1893 at the age of 65. Raynham VR shows a Charles H. Leonard, son of Jarvis Leonard and Elizabeth Grinnell, died March 20, 1925, at age of 76 years, 5 mos., 3 days.

There was a Jarvis D. Leonard, 22, living in Taunton with his wife, Elizabeth F., 23, daughter Adalaide A., 3, and daughter Lydia A., 2, in the 1850 Census. This Jarvis was a moulder or stove maker. The census was taken on August 19, 1850, so should have shown son Charles if this were the right Jarvis. ECL/GML leave out daughter Adalaide, son Charles, but add in daughter Emma and son Andrew. Dates on marriages seem confused. ECL says Jarvis was a "furnaceman" or "stonemaker."
