I've just begun research on my Hendershot line, so my information is a bit sketchy. I've checked the copy of William E. Hendershot's book that's in the New York City library, but no luck yet. Here's the information provided to me by my great-aunt: William Albert Hendershot m. Ida Mae Hoce, daughter of Arthur C. Hoce. They came from Baltimore and settled in Parkersburg, WV. I believe William may have had a sister, Rachel, and a brother, Michael Lynn. William's children included: Lyle who moved to Columbus, OH Woodrow Rose who stayed in Parkersburg, WV Violet Jack Albert Ellsworth b. January 27, 1922, d. July 1984 m. Maggie Mae Rawlings, daughter of John Rawlings and Maggie Mae Redman. Albert is my grandfather. Hopefully I will have more information on him soon, but this is what I know at the moment. If anyone knows anything on this line, I'd appreciate hearing from you. Thanks, Kerry Hendershot kbhend@accesshub.net
