A J Kenyon

Photographer: A. J. Kenyon
Port Leden, N. Y.

A. J. Kenyon was found in three city directories that happened to include the small town of Port Leyden. They are 1868 (Booneville), 1871 and 1873 (Utica). After a page by page search of the 1870 US Census covering Port Leydon, NY, only one person with the name Kenyon was found; a Joseph Kenyon, with wife Julie. However, that Joseph Kenyon was a farmer, already 66 years old in 1870, probably too old to be a photographer in the cabinet card era.

It can only be documented so far, that A. J. Kenyon was an active photographer from 1868 to 1873.
