Gary Pace San Jose, CA Researching the descendants and santecedents of Henry B. Kemp The Smith Co., TN Kemp patriarch was Henry B. Kemp. Mary Alice Kemp was a descendant of his son Richard Kemp; Bassie Kemp was a descendant of his son Solomon Kemp. Henry B. Kemp (1731/1736/1739/1740/1743 - February 15, 1819<) [1790 USC/WNC] married Dinah Unknown (? - February 15, 1819<) ~1756. He was born in Queen Annes Co., MD (?) / Orange Co., NC (?) / VA (?), and emigrated prior to April 1745 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. The extent of his issue is not definitively known. Henry Kemp's children born in NC who remained in NC and did not migrate to TN included: John Kemp (~1757 - ?), born in NC Jesse Kemp (~1772 - ~1813), born in NC, married Mary Fullager (~1763 - ~1840) ~Oct. 1783. They had 13 children, several of whom emigrated to Hardin Co., TN. Henry Kemp's children born in NC who migrated to TN with him included: Rebecca Kemp (~1755 - ~1833) was born in Caswell Co., NC and died in Wilson Co., TN. On 20 Jun. 1781, in Wake Co., NC, she married 1) Roger Reece Jr. (1751/1760 - 1798), son of Roger and Fanny Reece, born in Caswell Co., NC, 20 June 1781 in Wake Co., NC; they had six children. Roger and Sarah Reece (Richard Kemp's wife) were siblings. On 4 Nov. 1799, Rebecca married 2) Fielding Neal in Granville Co., NC.

Roger (Rebecca Kemp's husband) and Sarah Reece were siblings. They had three sons and two daughters.

Solomon and Judah had four sons and five daughters. Richard Kemp (1774/1775 - 1850<) [1820 USC] [1830 USC] [1840 USC] [1850 USC] was born in NC, was literate and married Barbara (Sarah) Reece (~1780 - <1875), born in Caswell Co., NC, daughter of Roger and Fanny Reece, on 4 November 1799 [GCNCMR] in Granville Co., NC, marriage bond 5303. Fielding Neal was bondsman; George Bridges was witness. (This is the same day that his sister Rebecca Kemp, widow of Roger Reece, married Fielding Neal!) Roger (Rebecca Kemp's late husband) and Sarah Reece were siblings. Sarah Reece was born in Granville Co., NC, and died in Wilson Co., TN. They had three sons and two daughters. Judith Holley observes: Sarah Reece and Roger Reece were brother and sister who married a brother and sister, Richard and Rebecca Kemp. The children of Richard and Sarah included: Jesse Benton (Benton) Kemp (1812 - 1880<) [1840 USC] [1850 USC] [1870 USC/JTN] [1880 USC/JTN] [1881 USC/FTX] was born in TN and married Mary (Polly) Dowell/Deal/Dial/Diel (~1825 - 1880<) [1850 USC] [1870 USC/JTN] [1880 USC/JTN] [1881 USC/FTX], born in TN 18 Apr. 1838 in Smith Co., TN.

Mary and Darb were born, married, lived and died in Jackson Co., TN. They are buried in the Rob Draper Cemetery, Gainesboro, TN, after removal from the family cemetery on the Thomas farm due to the flooding from Cordell Hull Lake. She is Sue Duke Frye's grandmother.

They are buried in the Rob Draper Cemetery, Gainesboro, TN, after removal from the family cemetery on the Thomas farm due to the flooding from Cordell Hull Lake. She is Sue Duke Frye's andmother. ------------- Gary, I need to correct some of my record on this family - George W. Kemp, s/o William and Nancy Kemp who married Nancy Ann Riley. I can prove that he did marry Nancy Ann Riley. born in Ky, except that I do not have a marriager certificare and that she appears in the censuses with him and their children and some evidence of their death records. I personally remembrt their daughter Margie being at my grandmother Alice's funeral and I did talk with her on that event. I visited two of her daughters - (when my father died one of them had my husband and me for breakfast the day of the funeral and the other visit was with my mother and husband not too awfully long before she died.). I would like to have an opportunity to change the record that you have while I still have an opportunity. Also, you sent me Nancy Ann Riley's parents and siblings which I lost in my computer and, as careful as I am with my material, I cannot find the copy that I made from your material sent. I realize that you are very busy right now and will be in the future but, if you could at all, I would very much appreciate it if you could send it again. My most sincere thanks and blessings on you.
