1704 Marriage Record for John Kenyon and Elizabeth Remington -- Post 440 for Treasure Chest Thursday

It's Treasure Chest Thursday - a chance to look in my digital image files to see what treasures I can find for my family history and genealogy musings.

The treasure today is the 1704 marriage record of John Kenyon and Elizabeth Remington in North Kingstown, Rhode Island:

The John Kenyon marriage record is:


The transcription of this record is:

"KENYON, John Jr., and Elizabeth Remington; m. by Thomas Mumford, Justice, July 1704"

The source citation for this record is:

"Rhode Island, Vital Records Extracts, 1636-1899," indexed database and digital image, Ancestry.com (http://www.ancestry.com), Volume 5, "Washington County, Births, Marriages, Deaths," page 30 (image 39 of 583), John Kenyon and Elizabeth Remington marriage entry.

John Kenyon, Jr. was born about 1682 in Kingstown, Rhode Island to John Kenyon and his unknown first wife, and died before 28 February 1734/5 in Westerly.  He married Elizabeth Remington in July 1704.  She was born in about 1686 in Kingstown to John and Abigail (Richmond) Remington, and died before 5 October 1747.

John and Elizabeth (Remington) Kenyon are my 7th great-grandparents, through their son Sylvester Kenyon (1710-1800) who married Anna Barber (1717-after 1800).
