I'm hoping someone can shed a little light for me. I am looking for any information on the Amos Sylvester Hensley family that lived (per the 1900 Arkansas census) in Blythe Township of Marion Co. at the time of the census. We've been unable, thus far, to find any info on Amos or his family enumerated below. We know that Amos originally came from North Carolina and supposedly had been raised by a "Boomer" Bailey after the death of his mother. (Easiest viewed fully enlarged) 1 Amos Sylvester Hensley, b. Nov, 1866 in NC married Millie Ann Walker, b Apr, 1867 in Tennessee. They had the following 11 children: 2 James Council Hensley, b. 2/16/1887 in Keener, Boone Co., Arkansas, d. 4/41966 in Lowell, OR m. Nettie Azlee Stewart, b. 1/3/1889 in Boone Co., Arkansas, d. 2/24/1957 in Lowell, OR. They had the following 6 children: 3 Vernon Curtis Hensley (our line) b. 2/22/1916 in Pyatt, AR d. 4/12/1991 in Lowell, OR m. Ruby Pauline Strunk, living.

Delphia (sp ?) 3 Benton 3 Coeta (sp. ?) 3 Clarence, 3 Mayvena (sp ?) name later changed to Cheri 3 Wanita (sp ?) probably Juanita 3 Rocky 2 Suzie (possibly Saissio of the 1900 census), m.
