Hi Meg, Thanks for the reminder, I did forget about that rascal Allen D. GENTRY over there in Monroe Co., TN. I've always known who he was. Son of Meshak GENTRY, right? I checked out all those lines in "The Gentry Family in America" 1909 book by Richard Gentry. One time I was in the main library in Madisonville, TN where a very helpful library assistant found a folder on Allen D. Gentry. Quite a guy. Read Monroe Co., TN Chancery Court records for 1854 - file #524. Pamela Geisler Smith Gresham, OR
