Second Generation


2. Addison LEONARD was born on 30 December 1782 in Rutland, VT.1 He died on 27 December 1861 at the age of 78 in Kenosha Co., WI. He was buried at Green Ridge Cemetery in Kenosha Co., WI. Did Addison really marry twice? The other time to Elizabeth Goodridge? Two families? Or are we mixing two different Addisons here. Was he born in VT or in Wethersfield, Hartford Co., CT, in 1781? Did he really live to be 115? Was he War of 1812 veteran?

He may have been the Addison Leonard, customer of a store in Dover, VT, in 1810.

Alternatively, was he born in 1781 in Gainesville, NY?

He was residing in Bristol, Kenosha Co., WI at the time of the 1850 Census. It would appear the family moved to Wisconsin by way of Ohio around 1845. Before that, they were residing in Cortland, NY. His son, John, was living with them, as well as Esther Goodridge.

Descendant, George, of Addison is in haplogroup R1b, assuming genealogy is correct.
