  1. I am a direct descendant of Leonidas Hamlin Kennard (James R. Kennard was my grand father). I am trying to document that Leonidas Hamlin Kennard's father, James R. Kennard was the son of James F. Kennard. I have not been able to find any primary source that proves the relationship. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

  2. I have that James R Kennard was the son of James Kennard and Maria Katherine Mickesell, but I do not have any solid documentation of that.

    I would be interested in what you find out...
