Bob Kenyon's Genealogical Page

This is my genealogical page mainly for my "Kenyon" research. I've got my family traced back to 1837 (Robert Kenyon), indicated on the 1881 English census as being born in Stalybridge, Cheshire (England).

My family came to Edmonton, Alberta (Canada), via Toronto, Ontario (Canada) after WWI. They had lived in Harlepool, Durham (England) since the late 19th century. Both my Great Granfather (Charles Kenyon) and Great, Great Granfather (Robert Kenyon) were living enumerated in Hartlepool in the 1881 census.

I've set up a GEDCOM file on the World Connect Project Site

Some "Kenyon" Information
