Christopher Dennis was first found in the Branch County 1860 census, married to Mary J. Dennis and father of Philena E.S. Dennis. I haven't found any information on what happened to his wife or daughter.

Margaret Vanderhoof (Christopher's second wife) is living with her parents, David D. Vanderhoof & Jane McCarty Foster Vanderhoof, in Coldwater, Branch County, MI during the 1860 Michigan census. Their farm was next to his brother John Vanderhoof's farm.

Three years later on October 22, 1863, Christopher married Margaret Vanderhoof .

Christopher Dennis 161 NY Inf. Private.

June 20, 1870 Chris H. Dennis signed for purchase of 78.53 acres of land, in Ensley Center. The Ionia Land Management Office handled the transaction.

In the 1870 census the couple is living in Ensley Centery, Newaygo county, MI. A daughter, believed to be Margaret's from before her marriage to Christopher Dennis (Altaiett Dennis/Vanderhoof), is living with Margaret's parents. Three other children were born, two sons Charles and David and a daughter, Sarah Jane.

Christopher preceded Margaret in death.

Buried in Pierson Twp. Cemetery, as Mr. Dennis. Date April 2, 1896. Plot 6-19. No stone. Cemetery information has recorded, Mr. Dennis, Charles Dennis and David D. Dennis , all buried next to John D. Vanderhoof, Jr. (child) and John D. Vanderhoof, Sr. , the father. John D. and Christopher Dennis were brothers-in-law. On April 17, 2009, I located the death certificate for Margaret and it indicates that she is also buried there. All four Dennis's are buried with no marker.
