Preface
I have been doing genealogy as a hobby for over 30 years, and fairly recently have started to
share some of my research in the form of books, in PDF format. Recently, I have been working
on some projects involving descendants. With sites such as ancestry.com, familysearch.org,
and genealogybank.com, it is possible to find much information online.
Why did I choose to research this particular set of descendants? After all, Josiah and Susanna
are only 2 of 32 different great-great grandparents of mine.
One reason is that I am aided by having their Bible record (the Bible being dated 1830) as a
starting point. In addition, Josiah Jenison was a Mayflower descendant, via his mother Mary
(Robinson) Jenison, who was the daughter of Martha (Hedge) Robinson.
Also, I have been in contact with a few descendants, who have been kind enough to share
photos and other information with me. It is my hope that by sharing what I have, more
relatives will come forth with more information which will make this book more interesting and
valuable to future generations.
This book is intended for the personal use of those who are related to, or have a special interest
in, this family. Of course, facts cannot be copyrighted, and can be used and shared without
restriction, and most of the information I include is facts. However, please do not copy, word
for word, the text of this book, unless your copying is not shared publicly. I have included
numerous footnotes. I encourage interested people to look up the original sources and put
them in their own words, adding to my information where possible instead of merely copying it.
If you are not sure if your use of my book is appropriate or not, please ask permission.
I have created a virtual cemetery on Find A Grave, for descendants of Josiah Jenison and
Susannah French. (At this time, spouses are not included in the Virtual Cemetery, although you
can often find them by clicking on the relationship links.)
I encourage questions and comments. Please direct them to [email protected]

1. Josiah JENISON was born 13 Feb 1778, probably in Barre, MA,1 the son of Abijah JENISON
and Mary ROBINSON. He was baptized 12 Apr 1778, at the First Church of Barre .2 He died 4
Sep 1861 in Shrewsbury, VT, and is buried in Northam Cemetery, North Shrewsbury, VT.3 He
married Susanna FRENCH 2 Feb 1808,4 daughter of Nathaniel FRENCH and Susanna BROWN.
She was born 12 Sep 1785 in Concord, MA, 5 and died 1 Sep 1875 in Shrewsbury, VT. She was
buried in Northam Cemetery, North Shrewsbury, VT.6
Josiah bought property in Shrewsbury, Vt., in 1802. A picture of his house can be found in a
history of Shrewsbury written by Dawn Hance. His house was valued at $150 in 1817.
According to Hance, Josiah was an enlistee for the Battle of Plattsburgh, N.Y., (1814) under
Capt. Robert Reed's company of militia.7
The Jenison family Bible was passed down to family members,8 and is inscribed "The Property
of Josiah and Susanna Jenison, Shrewsbury, Vt., Aug. 24th 1830."9
1
His parents lived in Barre, and he was baptized in Barre. Although his death record gives his place of birth as
Hubbardston, it is unlikely he was born there, because there was a church both Barre and Hubbardston, and if he
was born in Hubbardston, there would be no reason to take him to Barre for baptism. His parents’ names are
given on his death records and are also known from the family bible.

“Baptisms from the Records of the First Church of Barre, Mass., 1767-1831.”, New England Historical and
Genealogical Register, Vol. 57, p. 414. His baptism record gives his father as Abijah Jennison.

Cyrus Prindle was a prominent abolitionist and one of the founders of the Wesleyan Methodist
Church. The following is excerpted from the Prindle Genealogy:
“Dr. Cyrus Prindle was a Methodist minister of much prominence in New England and New
York, and had for many years many important churches under his care at Troy, Albany,
Lansingburg, N. Y. City and other important points.
He left the Methodist Episcopal Church in 1843 in consequence of its attitude in regard to
slavery, and was one of five or six other anti-slavery ministers who organized the Wesleyan
Methodist Connection of America, at Utica, N. Y., in that year. He was editor of ‘The Wesleyan,’
the official paper of the Wesleyan Connection, at Syracuse, N. Y., for twelve years. After the
abolition of slavery and the changed attitude of the Church with regard to slavery he, in 1868,
returned to the M. E. Church, and was cordially received and highly complimented by the
Bishop for his anti-slavery work in years past.”27

Edwin, 10, and Livonia, 3. Lorenzo died 29 Aug 1870, in Stockbridge, VT.36 Edwin was
apparently a child by a previous marriage.37 In 1880, she lived in Stockbridge, later Nancy
moved to Pittsfield. She is called “Nellie” on the death record of her daughter Arminda. Dow,
as he was often called, “was of medium size, not fleshy like his brothers and the Barnes family

farm in Stockbridge, Vt., until the house burned and was not rebuilt by her

6. Susannah French JENISON (Josiah JENISON) was born 18 Dec 181542 in Shrewsbury, VT,43 and
died 7 Mar 188344 in Floyd, IA. She was buried in Oakwood Cemetery, Floyd, IA.45 She married
Artemas Slack HUBBARD 16 Jan 1834,46 son of Reuben HUBBARD and Lucy SLACK. He was born
3 Nov 1809 probably in Plymouth, VT,47 and died 29 Jan 1903 in Balaton, MN. 48 He was buried
in Oakwood Cemetery, in Floyd, IA.
Although her birth name was Susannah, she was known as Susan. Artemas and Susan
moved to Hubbardston, MA, by 1837, and to Ashburnham by 1844, based on the locations of
the births of their children. Artemas was the manager of a poor house in Ashburnham at a
salary of $225 a year. His duties were bookkeeping and buying supplies. 49 According to the
1850 census he was a laborer. In 1869 Artemas and family moved to Floyd, IA. 50 He is listed on
the 1870 census there as a farmer.

For place of birth: Ancestry.com. Vermont, Vital Records, 1720-1908; based on Vermont Vital records.
However, this record gives her year of birth as 1816. Since these index cards are transcriptions, there could be an
error. Therefore, I am assuming that the Bible record gives the correct year of her birth.

which Mr. Hubbard had kept his books, and was able to render an account of all his doing through the year, and
being satisfied with his general management have employed him for another year at the stipulated price of 225
dollars."
