Posted on: Posey County In. Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/In/Posey/1252 Surname: TENNISON, TENNYSON ------------------------- George W. TENNISON was born in 1803 and we believe the state was probably Tennesse. He had a son William, who lived out his life in Warrick co., IN. It is interesting that Israel TENISON had a son Francis Marion. My husband's great grandfather, son of George W., had a son Francis Marion born in Texas. He died as an infant. But could Francis Marion be a family name?? Do you know where in Tennessee your Isreal was born?
