Mother's research has been lost so I have no source for any information. Some of the dates I picked up from records.) James G. (Sop) Trent (b 1806-1812 Hawkins Co., d after 1880 in Lee Valley, VA?) married to Catherine Jane Templeton (Katy) (b ? Green Co., TN, d before 1880 Lee Valley, TN?). James G. was the son of Alexander Trent (b 1759 Chesterfield Co., VA d 1841 Hawkins Co.)and Jane Burton [possibly Virginia Jane Burton] (b 1765 Grayson Co., VA, d 1843). Alexander was the son of Alexander Trent (b 1726 Henrico Co, VA, d 1803 Patrick Co., VA) and Elizabeth Scott (1730-1780). [some notes between Elizabeth and Alexander the elder say Campbell Co., VA 1772-92 from Chesterfield Co., VA, I don't know to whom they apply or what they mean] Alexander the elder was the son of William Trent (1686-1768) from Chesterfield Co., VA and Ursula Branch (1693-1768) William was the son of Henry (1642-1701, an immigrant (notes are barely illegible, looks like Eurite Co., VA but I can find no such county, it appears he immigrated from some other country to VA [note may say Europe to VA instead of Eurite Co., VA]. Henry may have been married to Elizabeth Sherman. [Notes also have William I and Henry I, which I assume was to separate them from the other Wm.s & Henry's or they indicate the end of the line.] I have no information on James G. Trents siblings. I show Mary Catherine Trent as the daughter of James G. and Catherine Jane Templeton Trent. Mary Catherine had an illegitimate daughter by James Hascue Brooks Sr., her name was Sarah Elizabeth Trent. Sarah married John Douglas Gibson. Mary Catherine Trent later married William D. Jarvis b 1856. I am praying the Jarvis family may have some information. If you find anything please let me know and I will do the same. [email protected] Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
