AKA: Boynton, Boyington

In the 1870 census Jackson Michigan, Zina is living alone with his daughter's family. I believe the Huldah died before 1880 and is buried in Illinois. It would explain why he came to Jackson to live with his daughter and he ended up at the Infirmary on his own. His burial is recorded but not Huldah.
