Birth*

Leonard Townsend was born circa 1841 in Point de Bute, Westmorland County, New Brunswick, 45.903616,-64.250448

There is no entry in the relationship to head of household box for Leonard. There is also a wide difference in age between Leonard and Eunice's known children, leading one to speculate that Leonard might have been a nephew or grandson. That Leonard was recorded as being 9 years old, which coincides with his known birth year.^2,3
