Individual Details

Henery KEYES

(Abt 1758 - 25 May 1792)

"33. Henry, b. probably about 1756 or 7. Of weak mind owing to an accident in childhood, and lived with his brother Amos. The Acworth Register gives the date of his death as May 25, 1792, in his 34th year, which would make the date of his birth 1758.

[This calculation is incorrect. If the died during his 34th year, then at his previous birthday, he was aged 33, meaning he was born before May 25, 1759.]

This must be a mistake, as the next son, Frederic, was born that year."
