R.E. and other Hensley researchers, the digital version of The Hensley tree : a celebration of family in the fabric of American history is now available online. Chapter 16 deals with Clay County, KY. I have no knowledge of how accurate the book is, and I haven't had time to explore there, but it might hold some answers. http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Library/fhlcatalog/supermainframeset.asp?display=titledetails&columns=*%2C0%2C0&titleno=628112&disp=The+Hensley+tree++
