    3. I've traced my IN Denneys back to my g-g-gfa, Wesley Denney, b abt 1800 in VA, was in Washington Co, IN by 1820. Believe his father is Thomas, but don't have anything on him. Wesley married twice, first to Mary Grantham, 4 Aug 1825 (4 children), 2nd to Mary McClary, 23 Oct 1834 in Wash. Co (9 children). Wesley and Mary (McClary) Denney's first son was John W., my g-gfa. John, b abt 1841 in Wash. Co., married Rosina Robinson/Robertson in Quincy, Adams Co, IL, in 1867. You can see I'm missing their birthdates and would appreciate especially hooking up with someone who has info on the Washington Co, IN Denneys. I've been to Washington Co, but never heard of persimmon pudding :) ----- Original Message ----- From: Joyce Underwood To: B. R.
