RA1854-???? Adoniran (Adoniram) Judson Nichols, Student Nova Scotia
The 1871 Census of Canada reports on the family of Jacob (51) and Jane F Denton (50) living in Sandy Cove, Digby County, Nova Scotia. This Baptist farm family sports 3 children Elmira J Nichols (22), Adoniram J Nichols (17), and Sarah H Nichols (14). With children named Nichols, I will assume that their mother, Jane, was previously married to a man named Nichols and brought these three children into a new marriage to Jacob Denton. At one point, the middle-child son is listed as Adoniram Judson Denton.
