(Motley) Hensley, I descended from John's brother, Charles E. Hensley. John's father was Harmon Hensley (b: 1780), and his mother was Betsy (believed to be Elizabeth Meekley). I have copies of court documents that place Harmon and Betsy Meekley in Sumner Co., TN, in 1797. Please contact me, I can provide copies of all the info I have, and put you in touch with quite a few descendants of John's father, Harmon. Looking forward to connecting with you, Avery & Jan Hensley (Avery Holmes Hensley, Jr.) Clovis, CA 559 289 0907
