George was the son of Solomon P. Kenison and Nancy Fisk. The 1880 census listed his father as Asa H. Kenison, but that was his brother's name. The age was right for his father, but the name should have been Solomon. It almost appears as if they reversed his father's and son's names on the census, since they are listed right beside each other. His son died before the 1900 census and isn't found after the 1880 census with the name Asa or Solomon to try to verify him.
On March 5, 1861 in Jefferson, NH he married Cynthia M. Derby, daughter of Ezra T. Derby and Lydia A. Spaulding.
Their children were Sadie and Solomon (or Asa).
George was a Sexton.
Age: 61yrs 3mos 23dys
Cause of Death: Brights Disease
Note:
The last name was spelled Keniston on her death record and several census reports; on other records (and George's parents headstones) it was spelled Kenison.
The marriage date on an index was Mar 5, 1867 in NH (but you couldn't view the document). A marriage record online that you could view listed their names, ages, birthplace, and Jefferson town clerk's signature... but no date. Since their daughter was born in June 1862, I believe the real marriage date was March 1861 and the 1867 was a transcription error.
