James KENNISTON

[860]

9-NOV-1783 - 29-JUN-1869

BIRTH: 9-NOV-1783, New Hampshire (?)
DEATH: 29-JUN-1869
BURIAL: Amherst, Hancock Co., ME

Family 1 : Mary AMES

MARRIAGE: 7-APR-1828, Bradford, ME

INDEX

[860]

Note that this data indicates he was 25 years older than his wife! Could Mary Ames have been wife of another James? Rick Fisher (2/27/97) offers that James' wife is Sally Robbins, and that Mary Ames may be his second wife, or even wife of a son, James (III), if there was one. [The Amherst, ME Town Clerk stated that James died 17 May 1870; the date I have used is from Vivian Inez Kenniston.] The surname is also found Kenerson, etc., but was originally Kynaston. The Penguin Dictionary of Surnames, by Basil Cottle (1967) traces it from the Anglo-Saxon meaning Royal Peace's farm. There are two places in Herfordshire bearing the name.

The 23 Aug 1850 census of Glenburn, Penobscot Co., ME lists James, farmer, age 64, with real estate valued at $500, born in NH, with wife Mary, age 41, also born in NH, and children (b. in ME): Joseph A. (age 17), Louisa (16), Moses A. (12)

Notes for further research:

The first known Kenerson settler was John (m. Agnes, r. Strawberry Banke - Portsmouth, NH), arriving about 1638, killed by American Indians in 1677 - had six sons. (See "New England Annals, Chapter Six," Laird C. Towle, Ed. [Bowie, MD: Heritage Books, 1980], p. 18.) A Jeremiah Kenniston was b. 1785 in ME and r. Eaton, NH. There is said to be a large MSS on the Kennistons in the NEGHS, Boston. Hampton, NH VR include the marriage of James Kennison and Deborah Greenought of Rye 9 Aug 1779; and (from provincial court records) the marriage of Christopher Keniston and Mary Muchmore, both of Portsmouth and living at Greenland, 4 October 1677, solemnized by Commissioner Samuel Dalton. The 1790 census of Stratham, Rockingham Co., NH lists a James Kennistion head of household with a son under age ten - this might be our James, b. 1783?

"Immigrants to New England, 1700-1775," Ethel Stanwood Bolton (Baltimore: Genealogical Pub. Co., 1997), pp. 103-104 lists John Kenniston of Nottingham, NH, emigrated from Scotland in 1746 after the battle of Colloden Moor, b. in Scotland; wife unknown; children: David, Joseph, Issac, Joshua, Samuel, Thomas (- ref. Greene's "Boothbay," p. 554).

The Kenniston surname traces its ancestry as a family of Boernician origin before the year 1100 and appears first in the ancient records in Lothian. "Surnames of the United Kingdom," Henry Harrison (Baltimore: Gen. Pub. Co., 1969) I:246 & 258, states that Kynnaston is found in Salop, that the ancient name was Kineverdeston = Cyneferd's Estate - "the personal name is a compound of Old English 'cyne-', royal, and 'fero', mind, spirit: + 'tun,' estate, etc." As Kynastone the surname means belonging to Kynastone (Hereford), app. Kynestan in the 13th cent. = "the Royal Stone" (Castle or Monument), from the Old English 'cyne' (royal) + 'stan' (stone).

Henry Kenaston (hkenaston@xtalwind.net) shared via email in July, 2002:
"John Keniston on June 10, 1766 deeds to his son Valentine, a laborer of Durham, N. H. 300 acres in Durham, N. H. on the south side of Wadleigh's road, near john"s small farm, for L 100. John & Valentine were Grantors. In 1769 signed by John & Susannah Keniston. There were deeds of Valentine of Northwood, N. H. 1774, 1790 and on April 15, 1795 Valentine of Norwood gives a deed for 1/6 part of a saw-mill & lot 24 of 9tj Range to Elizabeth Caswell of Northwood, N. H. Jeremiah Dow of Northfield, N. H. town of Nottingham, N. H. between 9 & 10 Range, 3rd Div. Jan. 11, 1773, recorded same day. Josiah Kennistpm was wotmess. Sold 30 acres in 1773 deed signed by Valentin & Comfort.

He was a Grantee of Gilmanton, N. Y. and a grand-son born there while proving claim. Valentin made deeds in Gilmanton 1801. Vanentine was living in Town of Nottingham but when the first town Meeting was held in Northwood, he found his house was in Northwood, N. H. just over the line. Valentine signed a petitions in Northwood in 1774, & 1785 also in Newmarket, N. H. Sept. 15, 1775. Valentine of Northwood, N. H. gives to the town of Northfield N. H. (Northwood) the Value of $300.

(Came to me as Northfield, but was probably Northwood as they lived at Northwood much moe than any where else). His children referred to in deeds and paper so probably theirs, some verified later. There children as collected from various sources: 1. Jeremiah Vr. Lived in Northwood, N. H.

Mar. Sarah Otis Born 1781, the daughter of Paul and Elizabeth Parsley Otis of Gilmanton, N. H. Their Children: Samuel, 2, Betsey, 3, Elsey, 4, Sarah, 5. Mary, 6 Silman, 7, Mark, & 8. Jane.

H. had a son Samuel Silas, b. Nov. 8, 1794 vr. 6 Jon, b. abt. 1767, mar. Luella Urann."

A review of the pedigree of Kynaston of Shropshire shows that the name Robert was very rarely used in that family. In fact the only of this name living in the last half of the sixteenth century was robert Kynaston, second son of Ellis and Iowry (Trevor) Kynaston of Pontesbury, Shropshire. Little is known of this Robert Kynaston other than he married Katherine Juan. the names of his Children and the date and place of his death are not known. Whether or not he was the Robert Kinaston who serviced as High Sheriff of Manchester is a matter of speculation at this time.

Henry Kiniston, his life and Children are suppoe to have come to New England in the spring of 1623 in the ship "Margaret & John." In the Spring of that year Mason, the proprietor of New Hampshire, established two fishing and trading settlements one at Shrawberry Hank, now Portsmouth. Several dozen ships came over the first year bringing settlers. The names of some of ships are known but the "Margaret & John" is not among them. More than half of the first settlers died during the first year. The settlement at Portsmouth abandoned in 1626 and resettled again in 1630.

The fate of Henry Kiniston is not known, but quite probably he, his wife, and son, James, and his daughter, Mary wre among those who died during the first year as nothing further is found about them.

Henry Kiniston Keniston, according to the source and manuscript history of "John Keniston and His descendants" referes to an "Old England book" in the Genealogical Society in Salt Lake city, Utah, which states that he was born in Manchester, Lancashire, England on the 13th of Jan, 1916, son of Henry Keniston and wife Elizabeth Leepze, daughter of Thomas and Hannah Leeze of Manchester.
