    1. HENSON ... Brothers ... Jesse and William Henson, Revolutionary War Veterans
    2. Posted on: Martin Co. In Queries Board URL: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/genbbs.cgi/USA/In/Martin?read=50 Surname: Henson, Hinson, Forbish ------------------------- Henson, William and Jesse ... brothers, migrated to Martin/Orange/Harrison Counties INDIANA from Randolph County NORTH CAROLINA. They were found in the 1790 Randolph County NC census and in the 1820/30 census in IN. Both brothers applied for Pensions as Revolutionary War veterans fighting for NC. Both William Henson, born about 1757, and Jesse Henson, stated that they had lived in Randolph County NC and that they were born in Culpeper County Virginia (next to Stafford County). I believe one of the brothers is the father of my gg grandfather George W. Henson who married Anna Forbish on July 20, 1825 in Martin County INDIANA. Later, George and his wife Anna, with their children, were found living in Laurel County KENTUCKY in the 1850 census. Any cousins "out there" that have information on these Revolutionary War pensioners or George W. Henson and his wife Anna Forbish? Does any of this "Ring-A-Bell". Thanks for your help.
