Henrietta was my great grandmother born April 9, 1848 in Forest City, Washington Cty, Maine. Her parents (Isaac Pendleton Leeman and Esther Nickerson were born in New Brunswick, as was Isaac's father Daniel Leeman; his mother Matilda Pendleton was born in Islesboro, Waldo Cty, Maine. That is about all that I have for this branch, and not much of it is confirmed.

The Leeman/Leaman's & Pendleton's are from Deer Island, NB, just across the bay from Eastport, Maine.

Don't know where you are located, but try to borrow the following book on Interlibrary Loan
Author Farrow, John Pendleton
Title History of Isleborough, Maine
Publisher Bangor, Maine Thomas W. Burr 1965 (reprint)

It has Pendleton history in it.

Marilyn M Strout,
Thank you for your help. I will look for the book "History of Isleborough, Maine" in local sources, then further away. I live in the Washington DC area and there are several good depositories here. If I may be of any assistance to you by doing any searches or responding to your problems please let me know.

There is a Henrietta Leeman, who was the daughter of Isaac P Leeman and Esther Nickerson, born about 1848. The family is listed in the 1850 and 1860 US census as living in the 5th Ward, Calais city, ME. Family members were mother Esther (Nickerson) Leeman, siblings Isaac Wallace, Amelia Emeline, Sarah Ann, Margaret G, Matilda Caroline, James (L or S), Matilda, Esther, and Henrietta. I am descended from Isaac P, who relocated to NS between 1860 and 1864 and started a new family.
I am looking for info on what might have happened to the family between 1860 and about 1864. Other than Isaac P, the father, the only members of this family I can find mentioned after this period are the ones that were old enough to have moved out of the house to start families of their own. Isaac W, and his sisters, Amelia Emeline, Sarah Ann, Margaret G, and Matilda Caroline survived, but I can find no record of his siblings, James, Esther, or Henrietta, or their mother, Esther (Nickerson) Leeman.
