Called Benjamin Tredwell Kissam Jun. but he wasn't a Junior as we think of it today. Junior is even on his gravestone inscription, but the transcription also says he was "eldest son of Danl W. and Ellizabeth Kissam. In the same burying ground is another much older Benjamin T. Kissam and this designation of Jun was probably to distinguish between the two men. They died within a year of each other.
