Hi Folks, I am trying to get some information for several of you about Gentry's naturally. I have it written in Word Perfect. Now how do I get it here? Here goes nothing. This 21st century is hard work on somebody who should have been born in the Victorian Area. For: Iroy@bham.rr.com For: magnoliaeast@rocketmail.com and For: phil@psg-nm.com Hi folks, This confused mess is the best I can do today. Ellen the four little Gentry's are not in the same family in this book. That doesn't mean that they don't belong to the same family. This book was printed and compiled by Jonathan Daniel Gentry, M.A. the book is called OUR GENTRY FAMILY 1510 - 2000. BY Jonathan Daniel Gentry, M.A. jgentry@hotmail.com. I have not had a chance to prove that all is right. He does have some sources such as The Gentry Family in America 1679 to 1909 by Richard Gentry. And marriage books and census and such. But I would advise that you check what you think you can use. I might have made some mistakes copying it. I do hope this gives you all a clue of where to look for whom. Henri.

Henri, you are so kind to share the information you have with us. Would you mind telling 50 year old woman which information was mine? You stated that the children were not found with Minerva...that fits with my information because AFTER 1850, they were never on the census with her again. Again, thank you for sharing and AGAIN, I appologize for "loopiness" in being able to determine the information you had intended for me--(Minerva b.abt.1825, William b.1842,Sarah b.1844 & Berryb.1846).
