Richard Henderson and Mary Polly Washer are possible ancestors of my Capt. James Henderson b. VA , and d. 1797 in Laurens Co., SC. Any connections? He and his brother?, Samuel lived nearby on the Simmons and North Creeks. It appears that at least Capt. James Henderson attended Little River Presbyterian Church nearby. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, March 29, 2006 12:17 AM Subject: [HENDERSON] Re: Riley Henderson son of Wm.
