Caren MY BRICK WALL: 1. HENRY2 JENNINGS (UNKNOWN1)1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 died 1822. Notes for HENRY JENNINGS: Walt Blanton, Sara Jean Salter Jennings, and Anna Crawford have James'<BR= > father as Henry. The only proof that James is Henry's son is below, howev= er, since Henry mentions no heirs in his will, this is only curcumstantial<BR= > evidence. I do notice that the bond below (Henry's will) was signed by Rh= ame family members. The Rhame family also witnessed James' (Henry's son) will= . The Rhame family were the Jennings/Ginnings neighbors according to the la= w suit filed by James Jennings' heirs. Also, James Jennings signed Henry's<= BR> will as Ginnings. Noah Jennings signed his name in documents as Ginnings<= BR> until the 1860 Benton/Calhoun County, Alabama Census where he changed the= spelling to Jennings. According to the book "Documented Notes on Jennings and Allied Families" = by Doughtie, James Jennings administered Henry Jennings will. Henry Jennings= died in Sumter County, South Carolina. His Estate was Administered on Mar= ch 8, 1822 by James Jennings (James signed as "Ginnings"). The bond was sign= ed by Ebenezer Rhame and Asa Rhame. The Witness was Redden McCoy. No heirs<B= R> mentioned. (Probate Court Records) Henry Jennings had a grant of 400 acres in Camden District on October 16,= 1784. (South Carolina Archives: Land Plats). He sold part of this land in= 1816. In 1790, Henry was residing in Camden District, Clarendon County, with 2<= BR> males 16 and up, 4 males under 16, and 3 females in his household. Residi= ng on either side of him was Henry Wise and Nathaniel Wise. July 16, 1795: Henry Jennings of Clarendon County, South Carolina a deed<= BR> from Nathan Wise and John Wise of same place, tract of 100 acres. Recorde= d on May 12, 1821 (Sumter County, South Carolina: Deed Book F-641) Some slaveholders had made a practice of freeing their most vicious and<B= R> troublesome slaves and those who were too old to make a living. A law of<= BR> 1800 required that a master wishing to emancipate must signify his intent= ion to the justice of the quorum, who should summon five freeholders. When th= ey convened with the justice, the master had to bring before them his slave = for examination. If the slave was found to be of good character and capable o= f supporting himself, the justice and freeholders signed a certificate of h= is fitness, and the master signed a deed of emancipation, both of which documents the master was to have recorded at the courthouse.
