Dear Elinor, Thanks for that most interesting posting. My wife's second cousin six times removed was Elizabeth DENNY (1760 - 1846) who was the wife of General WARD's son Thomas Walter WARD (1758 - 1835), and, as you rightly show, Elizabeth was the daughter of Col. Samuel DENNY and Elizabeth (Henshaw) DENNY. I am now doing a lot of research on the DENNY family, on both sides of the Atlantic ('our' branch were from Suffolk, England), and would be happy to help anyone else with an interest in them. Yours, etc. Geoffrey Woollard, Cambridgeshire, England.
