Ephraim Leonard was born on 25 June 1800 in Tyringham or Chesterfield, Berkshire County, Massachusetts. Or was he born in Savoy, MA? He and Elsa ("Elsie") Hill were married on 19 May 1821 in Troy, Rensselaer, New York. Or was it May 14th? He died on 22 August 1863 at age 63 in Windsor County, Vermont. He was apparently a pauper when he died. Was he living in Cheshire, MA, or Windsor, VT, when he died?

Ephraim lived in Petersburg, NY, as of 1855, having lived there for more than 10 years. He died a pauper in 1863 in Chester, VT, near his daughter, Keziah.

Or Eufemius? Or Euphemius? Or Erupheur? Euphemius means "well-spoken" in Greek.

Note that Ephraim’s father, also named Ephraim Leonard, is living in Sheffield, Berkshire County, Massachusetts at the time of the 1800 federal census.
