Dear Joanne:
I would very much like to share family information with you!!! I have tried
to search VT (Weathersfield and capitol) records without much success. I
also have Ballards from Andover, MA - any relation?


My Dad: Harold Dennison born Lawrence, MA
His Father: Arthur Eugene Dennison, born Chester, NH
Grandmother Dora Harrison, Halifax, England
Greatgrandfather: **John Clark Dennison born Lowell, MA
Ggmother: Addie E. Warren born Hudson, NH
Her Father: *William Warren: Born 1818 Weathersfield Bow, VT
Died 9 May 1861 Hudson, NH
Eliza Ann Brown born Hudson, NH
His Father: *Isaac Warren born 1771 Ware, MA
*died 10 Mar 1863 at 92
Weathersfield, VT (returned from
Hardwick, MA)
*Lucinda Brockway (1st)
I would like to know more about this family. Why Isaac left Weathersfield. He
was a deacon and traveled? It seems that there was a child born after he
married 2nd wife?? or was this another person???? Probably not since he
returned to Weathersfield after death of Lucinda???
*Mercy Thomas (2nd) born 1782 Hardwick, MA
Married 19 Oct 1800
*died 20 April 1837 Weathersfield, VT
Deaths found in cemetery records (New England Historical and Genealogical
Society) of Weathersfield, not in VT vital records.

** John C. Dennison
Mercy Denison born 25/9/1819 Francestown
Her father: James Denison born 16 Sept 1781 Dublin
Mercy Durant born 16 July 1790 Francestown, NH

He fought in American Revolution. Did he fight in Vermont? I would like to
know more about why he moved from Conn to NH to VT. To the frontier?
Possibly land grant, will, probate record?

How does your family line fit in with these Dennisons?
Please let me know.
H Dennison
