Ah, but which Solomon Kemp? I am a Kemp family researcher and would be delighted to swap Kemp genealogy with you or anyone on the list. My Kemps came from NC to Smith Co., TN, then dispersed to other TN Counties, IL, MO, AR, TX. I am now primarily focused on pushing back through NC to earlier Kemps, possibly from New England, then England or Wales. All assistance here most gratefully received. The most senior Solomon Kemp in my tree is a grandson of Richard Kemp and a son of Henry B. Kemp: *Richard Kemp (~1715 - ?), married ~1735 is mentioned in the Johnston Co., NC, deed books as father of Henry Kemp and Henry’s wife being Dinah. ***Henry B. Kemp (1731/1736 – February 15, 1819<) married Dinah (? - ?). He was born in Queen Annes Co., MD (?) / Orange Co., NC (?), and migrated with his father Richard to Johnston Co., NC. After Wake County was created from Johnston, Cumberland and Orange Counties, Henry, about 1804 - 1806, migrated from Wake Co., NC, to Wilson Co., TN, and then later to the Defeated Creek area of Smith Co., TN. Some sources have the migration beginning from Granville Co., NC, which was just north of Wake Co., NC. He died in Smith Co., TN. His children were: *****Rebecca Kemp (~1755 - ~1833) was born in Caswell Co., NC and died in Wilson Co., TN.
