The first land record of James Kenyon (12) is dated 25 Mar. 1719 in South Kingstown and shows that Benjamin Peckham conveys to him a one-acre lot next to Presbyterian Meeting House. On 23 March, 1720-21, James Kenyon (Tavern Keeper) conveys same lot to Robert Case. Wife, Sarah, signed deed which was executed day before the birth of their son, Benjamin. James Kenyon(12) was deeded land by his father in Westerly, Aug., 1719. He moved to Colchester, Connecticut in or before 1722. He deeded away his land in Westerly in 1733, to Clement West. He was deeded real estate in Colchester, Conn., Apr., 1724, and deeded it away in Dec., 1732. On 24 Dec. 1722 in Colchester, he was appointed a way warden and on 13 Dec. 1725 he was appointed a surveyor. The births of his daughters, Mary and Abigail, are recorded in Colchester. He settled in Dutchess County, N. Y., around 1730 and died there. He left many descendants in New York State.
Dutchess County New York is a Beautiful Place. Sits right next to the Hudson River. In my research i found dating approx early 1900s raincoat mogul Clarence Kenyon was the owner of one of the first garment factories in New York, Whos family Live in Dutchess County NY. Helen Kenyon, the daughter of Clarence Kenyon and Emma J. Kelsey, traces her genealogy back to the Mayflower. I Haven`t found the direct connection to #12 James Kenyon family yet.
