Mathew(Mathy) 7 m Ark John W 5 m Ark Elizabeth(Martha)4 f Ark Joseph 1 m Ark Per Thomas Tennison's Civil War Pension, his children were: Nancy J Tennison, born 26 Aug 1850 Mary M,born 6 Nov 1851 (not on 1860 census, died young) Mathew,born 5 July 1853 John W, born 7 Jan 1855 Elizabeth, born 21 May 1856 Joseph, born 21 Feb 1859 Sarah D, born 25 May 1861 Cyntha C, born 25 Dec 1862 I show Thomas Tennison's death date as 8 June 1864. His birth date was 9 Jan 1826. The Bible record sheet shows he was born in Alabamy, but he is always listed as being born in Indiana (Spencer County?) on census. They were married 9 March 1848 in Newton Co. AR. Sarah Caroline Liles was born 9 Sept 1832 in Tenn Died 18 Sep 1882\7? Do not know who her parents were. I show Thomas Tennison's parents as: Thomas Tennison and Mary Ann Bristow, daughter of Samuel Bristow and Lavina (maiden name unknown). Mary Ann Bristow married Thomas Tennison on 4 March 1820 in Spencer Co. Indiana. You can check this Indiana marriage by going to the Allen Co. Indiana Library Web site. Mary Ann Bristow was born 11 March 1803 in Ohio County,Kentucky. Evelyn Flood Rkinfolks@aol.com
