About Joseph Leavens, II


When Joseph (JOSEPH) wedded Alice Eaton it was Parson Marston Cabot who solemnized the ceremony. This pair seems to have settled to a quiet life in a place carved out of the estate of the old Justice. Perhaps it is the extraordinary vigor of the senior Joseph that throws the junior of the same name into the shade. Nevertheless the latter has a creditable record and lived to a hale old age. Alice Eaton Leavens survived him ten years and her body reposes, apart from her husband, in the grave yard at Windsor, and is the link to connect the Leavens family of Vermont to the good Connecticut stock. Joseph is most likely buried in Aspinwall Cemetery or Putnam Heights Cemetery.
