Notes for JACOB KINZIG:
This material was gathered by Lester Kinzie of Banning, California, in 1975 and was revised in 1977.

Through the Port of Philadelphia during the last third of the seventeenth century and the first third of the eighteenth century, there surged the tide of people seeking religious freedom. The German Palatinate had been ravished by the Thirty Years War, and for a short period at the beginning of the eighteenth century, Swiss Mennonites had partial peace there before embarking for the new world of William Penn's Pennsylvania. Persecution of all Ana-Baptists in Switzerland had been fierce. Somewhere in all this change and movement there was a man, which tradition says was a man named Abraham Kinzig, the progenitor of the Kinsey-Kinzie families of Bucks County, Pennsylvania and Waterloo County, Ontario, Canada. Writing in 1895, the Waterloo County historian Ezra E. Eby boldly states, "the founder of this family was a native of Switzerland whom religious persecution first drove to the Palatinate and afterwards to America. He arrived in Bucks county, Pennsylvania as early as 1735 if not before. The old progenitor, Abraham Kinzie by name, resided near Quakerstown, Bucks County, Pennsylvania, where he died, leaving a family of several sons. The names of two were II Dilman and Ii Abraham." Eby is in error about the sons, and even generations. He did not know of the first generation Jacob Kinzig, and second generation Johannes Kinzig, who in turn died, having among others, a son Dilman and Abraham. An A. K. Kinsey writing December 5, 1882 from Lansdale, Pennsylvania to a Canadian cousin declares that the ancestor of the Kinsey-Kinzie family was an Abraham. A.J. Fries' amazing research in the 1920's states that it was a Jacob Kintzing who arrived in 1737. He identifies this Jacob, as one who arrived on the Ship Saint Andrew Galley, September 26, 1737 and signed his name "Jacob Kinzer". We question this conclustion.

Persistant tradition names Jacob's father as an Abraham, that is, an unknown and traditional "Abraham Kinzig", or possible "Kintzig", or "Kintzing", at least this is the way it sounded to the scribe of wills and deeds. For nearly a hundred years then, tradition in Canada states that this Abraham Kinzig came from Germany of Switzerland in 1735 to Bucks County near Quakerstown, Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania family members Anglicized the name, but state that it was an Abraham Kinsey who was the progenitor of Kinsey-Kinzie family in North America. No birth place or date, or time of death has been discovered. But it is amazing that there are a number of Abraham Kintzings in Pennsylvania during eighteenth century. Some illustrations are as follows. There was an Abraham Kuntzigh who made his mark "X" (unable to write) as he arrived on the Charming Nancy, November 9, 1738. He indicated his age of 24 years. Being born in 1714 would probably make him about ten years too young to be the father of our Yeoman Jacob Kinzig of Rockhill Township, Bucks County. Another Abraham Kintzig, or Kinsig, born 1690, was buried in Philadelphia, December, 1759. He seems to have been Moravian not Mennonite. Although dates might fit, church relationships are not logical. Another listing for an Abraham Kintzing indicates that he was naturalized probably in 1729 or 1739, and may be the same person identifiede by Daniel Rupp. What relationship this Abraham Kintzing might be is unknown. An abraham Kintzing was naturalized in September 1740 in Philadelphia, but his relationship is alwo unsure. Another Abraham Kintzing drew up a will in 1759 (died in 1760) in which he speaks of a son Abraham. This Abraham Kintzing was a miller in the City of Philadelphia. The most interesting Abraham Kintzing of all, is one who had a son Abraham Jr. This Abraham Kintzing Sr. died C. 1780, married about 1760, and if 30 years of age at that time, might have been born c. 1730, about the same time as our Jacob Kinzig. Therefore, they could be brothers. One of the most intriguing names is that of Abraham Kuenzi, born in Erlach, Switzerland, 1702, who is said to have emmigrated to Philadelphia (this information provided by the research of Willard L. Kinzie). Our known Jacob Kinzig, or Kintzig, or Kintzing was married about the year 1745. If married at twenty-one years of age, the Abraham Kinzig would in turn have been born c 1703. (Notice that abraham Kuenzi was born in 1702, a striking similarity.)

We believe that the father of first generation Jacob Kinzig was an Abraham Kinzig, who may have lived in the Philadelphia area and not "near Quakerstown" as Canadian tradition states. No doubt this Abraham was born in Switzerland or Germany, between c 1690 and c 1705. How his name was spelled in Europe is unknown, but to clerks who transcribed wills and deeds, it sounded like Kintzing, Kintzig, or Kinzig. It is most significant that there were a number of persons of the same spelling in Philadelphia County (which could include what is now Montgomery County). It remains a fact that there was a extensive family or families by the name of Kintzing-Kintzig-Kinzig, and a number of men with the given names of "Abraham". One may be the elusive family head, the traditional Abraham Kintzing. At the death of Jacob Kintzing in Bucks County, in 1749, a will was filed by his widow, Catherine "Kinsing"" in Phildelphia County. There was a Abraham Kinsing (Kinzing) living in the same Phildelphia County, in 1735. The ancestoral Abraham Kinzie, that is Kintzing, Kintzig, Kinzig, Kinsing, Kinzing, awaits discovery.

What is our best solution to the answer to this dead end street in our genealogy? As of July 1977, two years after the discovery of the Abraham Kinsing, Blacksmith of Philadelphia deed drawn June 25, 1735; and the Catherine "K" (her mark) Kinsing will in the same city, of Feb 28, 1749 - we believe our search must consider the following: First, Philadelphia City and County may hold the secret of elusive Abraham Kintzig, or Kintzing, or now perhaps Kinsing. There are recorded files out of order, they may give clues. The deed from Hudson to Abraham Kinsing, Blacksmith needs much more study. And as we have stated, the name may be spelled, as it is, in Philadelphia City and County, Kinsing. No doubt this is not the European spelling, only as the recorder in Philadelphia spelled it. Also, much more research should be made in old records in Perkeomen and Shippak Townships of what is now Montgomery County.

We believe that answers are to ber found in two places. First the official records in the City and County of Philadelphia, maybe under the spelling Kinsing or Kinzing. Second, in some old records of family or institutions in the present Montgomery County, other than official records, information may be waiting to be discovered. Perhaps here the spelling will be Kintzing, or Kintzing, or something like this.

One last observation. Our brief visit to the German Palatinate and some of the Swiss ancient strongholds of the Ana-baptist Mennonites has convinced us that here is not where we must begin. We must find our man Abraham Kintzig or Kinsing in Pennsylvania records first.

The Quakerstown Pike from Philadelphia was the way into and through Rockhill Township of Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Just past Sellersville one would have crossed an old road, known as "The Road to Potter's Mill on Tochiccon", later to be known as Ridge Road. It is just a few hundred feet to the west that there is a farm, two hundred acres of land purchased by Yeoman Jacob Kinzig and recorded May 11, 1748. This fertile plateau is drained by the headwaters of the Three Mile Run. The Kinzig Farm is now part of land bounded on the northeast by Old Mill Road, and where it crosses Three Mile Run there is an old barn still standing, which may date from the first third of the eighteenth century. The farm is bounded on the northwest by Forest Road, and on the southwest by a line between modern Road, or Catch Basin Road. It is this farm which identifies Jacob Kinzig. At this writing, we do not know where or when Jacob Kinzig was born, although it probably was between c. 1716 and c. 1724, and if not in Pennsylvania then in the German Palatinate or Switzerland. Who his father was is unknown, although tradition says his name was Abraham. Beginning with the last third of the seventeenth century, the German speaking Mennonites of this Franconian culture were, in the main, from the Palatinate or Switzerland. The Franconian culture was based in Bucks County, and Shippack and Perkiomie townships of Philadelphia County, now Montgomery County. His two hundred acres, less six acres for roads, had been secured by deed from his father-in-law, John Freed, sometimes Johannes Freidt, who in turn had secured it from his father Johannes Freidt (Freed) and wife Christiana. John Freed's four hundred acres in the northwest corner of "Two Thousand Seven Hundred and Eighty Acre Tract" was at one time land given by the King of England to the daughter of William Penn. It is in the deed to 200 of the 400 acres that the name Jacob Kinzig is spelled three ways, Kinzig, Kintzig, and lastly and most often Kintzing.

Jacob Kinzig, yeoman of Rockhill Township, the village of Almont, Bucks County, paid one hundred Pennsylvanian Pounds for the buildings, improved ways (roads), water courses, and wood timber. Having been married a few years before, now having three children, he purchased the land for this large amount of money. Jacob must have had means, or inherited money from his father. His father in turn, must have lived for some time in the colonies, for few Palatines arrived from Germany with much money. Jacob Kinzig and his wife Catherine, daughter of John (Freidt) Freed, had as neighbors, in 1748, her brother Henry Freed and wife Anne, on what would seem to be the northeastern half of the original 400 acres of land. Other neighbors were Anthony Haynes and land promoter Thomas Freames, once the owner of Manor Perkasie. Catherine (also Katharine) had a brother Peter Freed and wife Barbara, and a sister Mary and husband Peter Roth. Jacob and Catherine Kinzig had only one son, John (Johannes) usually spelled "Kinzig", sometimes "Kintzig", "Kintzing", and signed "Kinsie" in his own hand in the year 1810. But often in census and other records it was John Kinsey, no doubt anglicized in the dominantly English-speaking Pennsylvania. As late as 1769, wills and deeds spell the name in the German-sounding "Kinzig", "Kintzig", "Kintzing", the latter spelling a commonly used name in the Philadelphia area by the mid-1700's. Jacob and Catherine had two daughters, one a child Catherine, died before 1769. The other, Mary Kintzig, was of "full age" and married to Henry Kraut, Jr, of Rockhill Township, by the year 1769.

Yeoman Jacob Kinzig is always referred to as being from Almont, Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Not only was he German-speaking, but probable an Ana-baptist Mennonite, since he was so completely accepted into this close-knit society. Indications that he was Mennonite, may explain the deeprooted Mennonite convictions of his only son John Kinzig (Kinsey). The close-knit Franconian Mennonite society took its name from the area of the Palatinate where most of them had stopped for a few years on their migration from Switzerland to Pennsylvania. These people were Swiss by birth, who left Switzerland because of harsh Catholic religious persecution. Jacob Kinzig died in 1749, and his widow later married Henry Reikert. Through recorded transfer of the two hundred acres of land to his only son Johannas, property passes from father to son, the same property described as part of the old 2,000 acres of Perkasie Manor, being two hundred acres less six acres. In Review, Jacob Kinzig (Kintzig, Kintzing) may have been born c. 1716 - c. 1724, since he is married with three children by 1748. His only son Johannes was born in 1747. If married c. 1745 at age 21 years, he would have been born in 1724. He died in 1749.

There has been some speculation as to where Jacob Kinzig was born. He could have been born in Pennsylvania. He seems to have had a lot of money, and the name Kintzing is common, with a number of Abraham Kintzings living there during the middle of the century. If he was born in the German Palatinate or Switzerland, and was under 16 years of age, then his name would not have appeared in ships lists in Philadelphia. There are a number of "Jacob Kuntz" who entered and whose names appear on ships lists, but none seem conclusive. A.J. Fries builds a case for a Jacob Kintzer or similar spelling who arrived September 26, 1737 on the ship St. Andrew Galley. We have no real record as to the details of his birth. This must be tied to the discovery of his father, maybe the traditional Abraham Kinzig.

Children of JACOB KINZIG and CATHERINE FREED are:
3. i. JOHANNES (JOHN)3 KINZIG, b. Nov 1747; d. 11 Nov 1829, Almont, Bucks Co. PA.
ii. CATHERINE KINZIG, d. Bef. 1769.
iii. MARY KINZIG, m. HENRY KRAUT, JR, Bef. 1769.

Generation No. 3

3. JOHANNES (JOHN)3 KINZIG (JACOB2, ABRAHAM1) was born Nov 1747, and died 11 Nov 1829 in Almont, Bucks Co. PA.

Notes for JOHANNES (JOHN) KINZIG:
This material was gathered by Lester Kinzie of Banning, California, in 1975 and was revised in 1977.

Johannes was also known as John. Last name may have been spelled Kintzig or Kintzing. Later anglicised to Kinsey continues the tradition of his father Jacob, on part or all of the two hundred acres of land, the Kinsey Farm near Almont, Bucks County, Pennsylvania. John Kinsey was born in November 1747, and died November 11, 1829 at the age of 81 years, 1 month, and 7 days. He was buried in a cemetery plot in Almont on Ridge Road, at a site which he had given for a Mennonite Church. this Church was never built, and his remains were later removed to the existing rockhill Monnonite Church Cemetery. Other association indicate his interest in and commitment to the Church of the Mennonites. As stated Johannes Kinzig was born in November 1747, which in turn gives a clue to the birth date of his father Jacob, and traditional grandfather Abraham. the Pennsylvania Archives list a number of John Kinseys in the last half of the Eighteenth Century, some no doubt were English. But there is one, we are convinced to be "John Kinsey", who lived on a 200 acre farm in Rockhill township which limits the field. In this Township there is recorded a John Kinsey who, on his 200 acres of land owned two horses and four cattle in 1779 which increased year by year and by 1785 he had seven horses and ten cattle and the next year he paid one of the highest tax of any man in the county, that of 1.1.2 (over a Pound). At the first census of the newly formed United States of America in 1790 for this county in Pennsylvania there were three John Kinseys, one had two men over sixteen years, one under sixteen, and two women living in his household.

When John Kinsey died in 1829 he left a sizable estate. There are many documents in the files of the County Recorder for Bucks County, Doylestown, Pennsylvania. A petition of Jacob Kinsey as recorded in the Orphans' Court Record Volumn 7, page 270, recorded December 15, 1829, reveals clearly the descendants of John Kinsey (Sr.). They were, first Jacob Kinsey, also spelled Kinse, second John Kinsey (Jr.) a Mennonite, with wife Anna of Almont, Bucks County, PA who died c 1855. He had eight children. The third son of John Kinsey (Sr.) was the Dilman Kinzie of Canada with whom we will deal later. Dilman Kinsey at the time of the probating of the will is dead, but his issue, that is children, are listed as John, Abraham, Jacob, Susanna, Barbara. The fourth son of John Kinsey (Sr.) was henry Kinsey who died c 1860. The fifth child was a girl Hanna Kinsey.

Our second generation John Kinsey bought and sold extensively in real estate. He had inherited property, and would gain other. "The Kinsey family set aside a lot along the Ridge road about three-fourths of a mile east of Almont, as a burying ground. It is claimed," writes the Mennonite historian John C. Wenger, "that John Kinzie hoped for the day when a Mennonite meetinghouse would stand along the Ridge Road. With this end in mind he donated a lot of land to the trustees of the rockhill Mennonite Church. But his dream was never realized.....Even the body of Kinsey," writes Wenger, "was exhumed and reinterred in the Rockhill burying ground. The trustees sold the lot he had donated."

4. DILMAN4 KINSEY (JOHANNES (JOHN)3 KINZIG, JACOB2, ABRAHAM1) was born 03 Dec 1774 in Bucks County, PA, and died 15 Jul 1806 in Doon, Waterloo Co., Ontario, Canada. He married BARBARA BEIHN.

Notes for DILMAN KINSEY:
This material was gathered by Lester Kinzie of Banning, California, in 1975 and was revised in 1977.

Dilman Kinsey was born in Bucks County, Pennsylvania on December 30, 1774. His father was Johannes Kinzig (sometimes Kintzig, Kintzing) not an Abraham, as stated by the historian Ezra E. Eby. Probable Dilman Kinsey emigrated to Canada for two or three reasons. No doubt the lure of good free land is one, also the collective Memonite spirit of German speaking persons to form companies was another. ut we also know that their refusal to serve in the military or to carry arms had not made them popular in the new United States of America at the end of the eighteenth century. The British Crown had long before granted Ana-Baptist Mennonites the freedom from bearing arms. There fore the company of which Dilman, his wife Barbara, and two-year old child became part, onsisting of the many United Empire Loyalists, moved north of the Saint Lawrence. In the year 1800 they traveled the five hundred miles from Bucks County, Pennsylvania to Waterloo County, Ontario. the nine teams of wagons (and covered wagons at that), two having four horses, made for a dramatic western migration. With difficulty, they crossed the Alleghany Mountains, the Niagara river, and Beverly Swamps to settle in what was to become the village of Doon.

The hero of the pioneer life at Doon was Barbara Kinsey. Dilman and Barbara with daughter Susanna arrived in 1800 in a forest land, primitive and uncleared. They were not the first settlers; other had cleared land on the east bank of the Grand River a few years before. Considerable land had been made ready for planting, a road built to the mill, and other basic improvements were made. John, their first son, was the first male child born in the area, that in 1801, shortly after arriving After a struggle of five years, Dilman Kinsey died, leaving land ready and a primitive pioneer home near the foot of a precipitous bluff by the river. For fifty years Barbara Kinsey would live here with her children. An account written sixty years later declares that she was left with "five small children to continue the precarious struggle of founding a home in a region yet far beyoun the confines of civilization." The eldest of these children was not over six years of age. Being a woman of indominable courage and perseverance, she succeeded in rearing them to manhood and womanhood and finally accomplished the task that she and her husband had together undertaken to accomplish, that of clearing a tract of land. This writer tells of an old spring near the pioneer home from which Indians drank, and by which they set up their teepees, and of the panther, deer, wolf, and other animals which came to the same spring.

Dilman had died July 15, 1806, in the village of Doon, where the family of our interest, named Kinzie, had its beginning.

Notes for BARBARA BEIHN:
Pioneer wife from Waterloo Co., Ontario Canada. Known the hero of the pioneer life at Doon.

Notes for JOHN KINSEY:
One of 5 children.

The fourth generation, John Kinsey (4050) was born nearthe village of Doon, Waterloo County, Ontario, Canada. He was the first male child born in the area, April 17, 1801. He died in Doon on June 7, 1852. In 1824 John married Elizabeth Moxley, daughter of Delilah Moxley (1779-1842). Elizabeth was born in Virginia on November 13, 1804 and died in Doon on May 4, 1883 surviving her husband by more than thirty years. John and Elizabeth Kinsey were buried in the Kinzie-Been Pioneer Cemetery in Doon. Elizabeth (Moxley) Kinsey is the first family member of whom we have a photograph.

Notes for ELIZABETH MOXLEY:

The history of the Moxley Family has been researched and compiled for the sake of posterity.
It is thought that the Moxleys originally came from the British Isles however this particular branch originated in the State of Virginia, USA.
At this date the Father of this branch is not known however he must have died prior to the family's moving to Canada because in January, 1818, a Daniel Eby of Waterloo County, married Delilah Moxley, a widow, who resided in McClellandtown, Pennsylvania, near Pittsburgh. They in turn, came to Canada and took up land in Waterloo County, Ontario, north of the Town of Waterloo. Their farm was referred to as the "Huber" or "Mrs. Sittler Farm".
Daniel Eby died in Pennsylvania in November of 1820. His wife and her seven children remained in Waterloo County where they pioneered and produced many off-spring. Mrs. Delilah Moxley Eby was born April, 1779 and died June 25, 1842. She is buried in the First Mennonite Church Cemetery, Kitchener, Ontario, in the same row as her oldest son and youngest daughter.

The second generation of this family is set up as follows:
Chapter 1 - William Moxley (1798 - 1831)
Chapter 2 - Samuel Moxley (1800 - ? ) Incomplete
Chapter 3 - Elizabeth Moxley Kinzie (1804 - 1883)
Chapter 4 - Mary Moxley De Kay (1806 - 1892)
Chapter 5 - Sarah Ann Moxley Benton (1808 - 1889)
Chapter 6 - Orlando henry Moxley (1815 - 1887)
Chapter 7 - Benjamin B. Eby (1819 - 1898)

The Elizabeth Moxley Branch of the
Moxley Family

Elizabeth Moxley, the third of six known children of Mrs. Delilah Moxley Eby, was born in the State of Virginia, US, November 13, 1804. She moved with her Mother and family to Waterloo county, in Ontario, in 1818.
She married John Kinsey, born at Doon, Ontario, April 19, 1801, and is reported to be the first white, male child born in Waterloo County. He was the second of five children of Dilman Kinsey and Barbara Biehn, who had moved to Doon, about 1800, from Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Both generations farmed on the west side of the Grand River and on the northeast part of "Biehn's Tract". this land remained in the Kinsey family for about 120 years.
This particular branch of the Kinsey Family used at least three different spellings of the name, and other spellings are not uncommon in other branches, viz: Kinzey, Kinzie, Kenzie, Kinsie, Kinse and Kinsey. This branch began as Kinsey while later and present generations have adopted Kinzie and Kenzie. The spelling was never legally changed.
It is written that the name originated in Switzerland but because of religious persecutions the Family moved to the Palatinate in Germany and later to America, arriving in Bucks County, Pennsylvania about 1735.
John Kinsey died at Doon June 7, 1852 and his wife Elizabeth Moxley died there May 4, 1883. Both are buried near his parents in the Kinsey-Bean Pioneer Cemetery, Doon, which is part of the original Kinsey property described above.

Notes for WILLIAM KINSEY:
The craft of beekeeping combined with carpentry has been common among members of the Kinzie family. Fifth generation William Kinsey kept bees on Grant Street in Brantford, Ontario, Canada. Pictures of him in his apiary indicate the old-fashioned non-standardized bee hives. He was also an excellent carpenter and was said to be the "best stair builder in Brant County" according to his grandson III, Albert Grant Kinzie. Gertrude (Kinzie) Langs shares the fact that the remarkably attractive stone house on Burham Street in Doon, (now Kitchener) Ontario was constructed in part by her grandfather William Kinzie. James Albert Kinzie related to us in the 1930's that his father John Mitchell Kinzie spelled his name as indicated, ""Kinzie" while his grandfather William spelled it "Kinsey" as they did in English-speaking Pennsylvania a hundred years before. Why the spelling of the name was changed is unknown. William Kinsey was born in Waterloo County, Canada on March 2, 1834. He married Hannah Mitchell who was born in Toronto, Canada in 1835. They were separated for many years, for reasons unknown. He moved to Burford, Ontario and nothing more was heard of him by any of the family until his death. He dropped dead on the streets of Burford on December 6, 1912. His son William Albert Kinzie and grandson Albert Grant Kinzie brought his body back to Brantford and buried him in the family plot at Mt. Hope Cemetery in Brantford, Ontario. Hannah Mitchell Kinsey died April 17, 1917 and is buried beside her husband William Kinsey in the Mt. Hope Cemetery.

Notes for JOHN MITCHELL KINSEY, (KINZIE):
John Mitchell Kinzie was born in Doon, Waterloo County Ontario, Canada on January 22, 1856. It was there that he married Leora Wilbee. The small house in which they lived no longer stands but the building of the Christodelphian Church, used for his carpentry shop still stands. After the death of his wife Lenora, he moved again to Rochester, Michigan, and in that he could not care for his children, the family was broken up. The only memory that James Albert Kinzie had of his mother in Doon, was her sitting beside the chimney fireplace and the whistling of "old sookie" (maybe "soutie"), the tea kettle. The only written record we have found in Doon of John Mithcell Kinzie is his name listed as one of the Sunday School superintendents of the Wesleyan Methodist Church of Doon. The oldest photographs of John were taken when he was living in Rochester. Like his father William Kinsey before him, John was a carpenter and beekeeper, and in a picture of his saw mill on the Grand River in Rochester, with his son James Albert Kinzie and others taken about 1895, a waterpowered sawmill, four bee boxes and other bee supplies can be seen. In June 1915 John Mitchell Kinzie married Ruby Lockwood by whom he had two more children, one of whom was John Mitrchell Kinzie, Jr. But ten years before John Mitchell Kinzie's second marriage, one of his sons James Albert Kinzie had moved to Riverside, Ca. in 1905 and it is through him that this genealogy continues. By his name, James Albert, it is clear that the last vestage of German-speaking Swiss influence has now been replaced by English Anglo-Saxon name and culture, as well as spelling. James Albert Kinzie never even knew of the Swiss origins of his family, and never knew of heard in his home, as a child, the German language.

Notes for LENORA PENFORD WILBEE:
The closer one comes to our own times the more difficult it becomes to know the history of one's family members. Lenora Wilbee was born on August 9, 1856 and died in Doon Ontario on August 8, 1898, one day short of her 42nd birthday. She was buried beside her first infant son, named William, in the Doon Cemetery in Ontario. Her father was George Wilbee and her mother was Jane or June Penford who was born on May 21, 1837. Lenora Wilbee lived a hard life with many sorrows, partly due to child births. She died of cancer and her children were adopted by different families. During part of her illness her husband, John Mitchell Kinzie, was in the Rochester, Michigan area. She bore eleven children including two sets of twins but only eight lived to adulthood. Among the three that died was her first son, William mentioned above, who died in infancy. Twins are very common in the Kinzie families of Kitchener (formerly Doon) and surrounding area of Canada to this day. Lenora Wilbee was the second generation wife who came from English-speaking families. The German language, from the Swiss Kintzigs, was, by then, not even a memory.

Children of JOHN KINSEY and LENORA WILBEE are:
i. WILLIAM8 KINZIE I, b. 1879; d. 1880, Doon Pioneer Cem..
ii. CHARLES SHERMAN KINZIE, b. 1880, Doon, Ont.; d. ABT 1955, Iowa; m. (1) MAY (MNU) KINZIE; m. (2) DAISY (MNU) KINZIE; m. (3) JUNE (MNU) KINZIE.

Seventh-generation in America, James Albert Kinzie was born in the village of Doon, now Kitchener, Ontario, April 27, 1881. With only a few memboris of his mother and father, the Grand River, Grand Truck Railroad, he moved with his father John Mitchell Kinzie to Rochester, Michigan sometime, it would seem, in the 1890's. (From the old sawmill picture on the Grand River, Rochester in about 1895 it would seem that James is with his father.) By this time the brothers and sisters were scattered. It was only many years later that his sister Hattie Delilah Kinzie Ashley was reunited with the family. In 1905 James, his brother Charles Sherman Kinzie, with the care of a sister Maude arrived by Southern Pacific Railroad in Los Angeles, then to Arlington, California. James lived the rest of his life there. James Albert Kinzie spent the first months of his newly found life in California watching cattle ("cowboy") on the Hazel Ranch of the old El Sobrante Rancho above Arlington in the hills. This was a short stay, for his ability with bees and carpentry lead him soon into new fields. He lived on Harrison Street, the house still stands, from 1912 to 1920. He married Edna Florenda Symons September 24, 1913. She had been born April 1, 1888 in Knightstwon, Indiana and later moved with her family to Portland, Maine. She came to California in 1909, living on what is now Prime Rose from 1909 to 1913, the house still stands. James Albert Kinzie, as a carpenter, helped in the construstion of the First Baptist Church of Riverside in 1906, then in a new structure at Ninth and Lemon, Riverside in later years. A number of buildings staand, in whose construction he had a part as a carpenter, one being the Civic Auditorium in Riverside, California. James Albert Kinzie lived on Van Buren Street by 1920, moving to 3714 Van Buren in Arlington in 1922 and living there until his death. His hand was always in carpentry until his death, and at the time of his death, September 4, 1959, he was active as a beekeeper. This genealogy is carried on through his son, Lester Lewis Kinzie.
