It is believed he moved to Illinois and then to Colorado, where he died in 1903. Their son, Charles Sumner, also was a doctor in Nashua, NH. Age: 65yrs 0mos 27dys Cause of Death: Tuberculosis Note: His death certificate said his mother's name was Permelia Ring. According to the History of Bradford, NH his father's 1st wife was Susan Pierce, who died in 1874; he then married Permelia Ring and then died in 1877. This is backwards. Note: The History of Bradford mistakenly reversed Enos's two wives. Permelia was his first wife and mother of his two sons. She was with them in the 1850 Manchester, NH census then she died Aug 1, 1851 in Manchester. Her death record said she was buried in Warner, NH but did not name a cemetery. Susan Pierce was still living with her parents in 1850 Bradford, NH. By the 1860 census Enos had married Susan Pierce. She died in 1874 and Enos died in 1877. They are buried in the Pierce Cemetery in Bradford, NH. (Thank you, Sue Fetzer, for catching this error)
