Henderson County 1n 1910 is there a Henry C. Taylor listed? Could someone tell me please. If so, who is listed with him? Their age? where they are from? Thank you for your assistance. Rosa Barton

Hi! Pamela: In 1816, Henderson Co., KY, William Jones m. Nancy Ann Sanner (daughter of Isaac & Nancy Ann Sanner). The Sanner family came to Henderson Co., KY from St. Mary's Co., MD ca 1809/10 with a brief stop in Frankfort, KY. I think that William Jones was also from MD. Isaac Sanner was a pilot on the Chesapeake, etc. around St.Mary's Co., MD and there was also a William Jones, Pilot. In Henderson Co., KY there was a Thomas Jones and a Hampton Jones in this time frame of 1810 to 1839 when our Jones family left KY for ARK, Yell Co. Nancy Ann Sanner's sister, Lavinia, m. Frances Cosby and her brother, Thomas Sanner, m. Nancy Collins. I am trying to find out if William Jones' father was a William also. They owned land in Henderson Co. and there was a William Jones, Sr. who had land and then in 1816 when our William married, he appeared on rolls as head of household and as William, Jr. Later William Jr. bought land also. In 1839 when William & Nancy and many children leave, did William Sr. die as he did not show up in ARK. William Jr. died in 1846 in Yell Co., ARK. Any info you can find would be greatly appreciated. I have visited the state archives but have not been able to answer these questions. Thanks: Betty "Pamela K.

Pam, thank you for this kind offer, I live in Ca. but I return to Henderson every year to visit my brother. I have three people in Henderson that has me stumped for a very long time. One is a Joseph Benjamin Flether Williams, some think his third name wasn't Flether but Franklin. On his death record it said Flether, but that could be wrong. He married Emily Webster and had a dau. Harriet "Hattie" Lenore Williams who married Samuel Jourdon Gish. Harriet was born Apr 18, 1863. Also looking for Emily Webster's parents all I know about them is her father was either Havilah or Harriah Webster and his wife was amelia ? possible maiden name was Rouse. Emily had a brother Hugh, she was born about 1828 and their parent died young and a James Rouse was made guardian. Also looking for a Charles M. Williams who disappears about 1869. He was married to Lavisa Belle Willingham and she remarried a John T. Golday in Henderson. Lavisa and Charles had the following children Lazarus, Mary Jane, Lavica Belle. Lavise and 2nd husband had the following children by Golday, Charlie, Dell, Dora, Sallie, Carrie, Raymond. I know this is a lot to ask, but if you could only find one I would be elated. If you need more information. let me know, and if you see Mr. James Blue tell him hello for me. Nancy Leeg Jankowski Pamela K.

Pam, wonderful person! If you need anything from Arizona or the LDS Genealogical Center in Mesa I'll be glad to do the look up for you or anyone who would like to participate. Joyce in Phoenix

Dear Pam, Thanks for all your hard work. It is difficult to find what we need when we are so far away. I am in California. It's a real small world so I always am wondering if I know or knew folks from Henderson while I lived there. I was Pam Brown, class of 64 City High. Ring any bells?

I am looking for info on Elias/Ellis Hill born abt 1812 in NC. He was on the 1840 & 1850 Henderson Co. Censuses. On the 1860 & 1870 censuses he was in Webster Co. Who were his parents and siblings? He married Elizabeth Shelton 20 Apr 1837 in Henderson Co. She was the daughter of Josiah Shelton and Nancy Ross. Elias and Elizabeth had children: F name unknown, Martha, Wiley W., William, Sydney, Harrison, James H., Frances, and George W. Any information on this family would be greatly appreciated. I am beginning to believe he is an alien from another world, who was beamed here on earth to spy on humans and report back to his home planet. Brenda Reeder seeker@wasatch.com

Hi Pam... As far as I know I am the list owner, as far as I'm concerned you may send a list of the obit names to the list every so often. If list members complain, we'll do something different. Another idea is to post an abstract of the Obituary to the Henderson County Obituary Board at http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ky/HendersonObits They would then be included in the GenConnect National search engine and the National Surname Helper Search engine.

I am making an offer to do look up in Henderson Co. for those of you on this list that are at a distance where you can not get to the Henderson Co., Library.

They will be on a first come first serve basis and on specific items - not doing research. Also, if anyone is interested and the controller of this list has no objections, I will type the names from the obits as they come out in the paper. These will be current obits but if anyone thinks it will help, I'll be glad to do so. If you want to see what is in the full write up, I'll give you the address of the paper here and they have them on line for appx. one month. The names will just let you know if you want to look at them. Please email me privately at palves@henderson.net for any look up and if the person that monitors this list will let me know about the obits we will see where that goes. Pam

As this was written by Dr. J. Weldon Pastor - First Methodist Church Henderson, Ky in March of 1943 I wanted to post this... ARE YOU SHORT? "Are you short of sugar To add to your breakfast joy? Are you short of sugar? I'm short a boy. "Are you short of tires, To joyride when work is done? Are you short of tires? I'm short a son. "Are you short of dog food, Because they lack a can? Are you short of dog food? I'm short a man. "Are you short of money, to help you list in style? I'm short the person Who make my life worthwhile." Dr. J.
