    1. [HENDERSON] Susannah Henderson and John Thomas Stone

    3. I am very confused and hope there is some new information out there about this couple. My husband is descended from John Thomas Stone and Susannah Henderson, through their son Reuben Floyd Stone and Fetney Hurst. In several places I have seen "trees" that say Susannah was born about 1793, the daughter of Thomas Henderson and Elizabeth McGhee. A few of these trees give Susannah's birth as about 1780, but still list her as the daughter of Thomas Henderson and Elizabeth McGee. This is not possible. If Susannah were born in 1793, that would make her only 9 years old at the birth of her first child.In her application for John Stone's military pension, she states that her first child, Thomas Henderson Stone, was born in 1802. In addition, she places herself as age 40-50 in the 1830 census, which would place her birth between 1780 and 1790, a much more likely scenario. If Susannah were born 1780, then she is not likely to be the daughter of Thomas Henderson and Elizabeth McGhee, as they were both born about 1770, and would have been only 10 years old at her birth. There are also some trees which list Susannah as the daughter of Thomas Henderson and Elizabeth Riggs (also unlikely), and there seems to be some confusion as to whether the Thomas Henderson who married Elizabeth McGhee/McGee and Elizabeth Riggs is the son of Thomas Henderson and Elizabeth Morrison or the son of John Andrew Henderson and Mary Russell. Does anyone have any input on this? (I won't get into the confusion over who John Thomas belongs to yet...) Thanks, Karen Pritchett

    3. I'm looking for the burial place of my ggg grandfather, George Washington Henderson (b 1790, d.9/7/1850 in Carroll Co. MO). He was married to Margaret Henderson (his cousin) 9/27/1838 in Carter Co., KY. I've hit a wall here. Any help would be appreciated. Keith Winkelman

    3. Correction. He was married to Mary Ann Miller 12/19/1814 in Olive Hill, Carter Co. KY. Apologies. His son James married Margaret Henderson. Need to slow down with the ol' Enter key.
