Dexter Kenfield: He married Edith Gertrude Green. Her sister was my grandmother.
As to her, you have her as "Gertrude E." Instead, Edith Gertrude is correct; I've seen her birth certificate from England. She was generally known as Gertrude or Gert, and is so listed in some records, including census (probably your source). I knew her as my "Aunt Gertie" (actually, my great-aunt.) She was born in Hallow, Worcestershire, England. (Your Web site has it as Windsor.) Your birth and death dates are correct. She died in Essex, Chittenden County, Vermont. (The site simply has "Chittenden, VT" which suggests the town of Chittenden in Rutland County, in another part of the state.) I played on her farm in Essex as a child.¹
