Biography

Horatio Leonard was born on 28 December 1780 in Raynham, Bristol County, Massachusetts.¹ He and Fanny Washburn were married on 29 September 1812 in Bristol, Rhode Island.² He and Mary Cunningham Haven were married on 14 May 1847 in Raynham, Bristol County, Massachusetts.³ He died on 7 December 1858 at age 77 in Raynham, Bristol County, Massachusetts. He was buried at Pleasant Street Cemetery in Raynham, Massachusetts.⁴

He was sheriff of Bristol County, according to the Providence Gazette, when he married in September 1812. He is listed as a farmer living in Raynham in the 1850 Census for MA, living with Fanny Leonard, 55, and Mary Leonard, age 52.

Horatio Leonard purchased Stephen King's right to build a dam across the Taunton River a short distance above the Old Colony Iron Works, removed the dam to another location and build a forge in 1824 for making charcoal iron of scraps and pig iron. In 1827 they commenced making iron with bituminous coal and soon after sold the business (Samuel Emery, History of Taunton, p. 666).

ECL says the last two children were by the second wife. But that would have been unlikely: she would have been 59 by the time she married Zephaniah, and the children would have been born 15 or more years before they were married. Horatio Leonard had person sources.^5,6,7
