Newspaper: Kinyon, Phineon (sic) 27-Oct-1868 D SCR (St. Clair Republican)
NOTE: Connection to David Kenyon and Mary Rogers is in debate. None of Phineas' known children are name after them or any of their children. There were 2 Kenyon families who had moved from Rhode Island to Washington County, New York. Many of the children in these two families had large numbers of children most with same names. There is no known documentation to prove Phineas is the son of David and Mary. The data comes from a Genealogy the publ "American Kenyons" by Capt Howard Nathaniel Kenyon. Even with internet and numerous resources there is no concrete evidence or proof. DAR records are not to be considered concrete proof. So the search goes on for DOCUMENTS.
