Subject: HENDERSON, SC,GA,AL From: Austinart Date: August 22, 1998 Many ALABAMA HENDERSON families who are descended from Hugh Mahaffey HENDERSON of Jefferson and Winston Co, AL, lived in North Alabama, including Lawrence Co, AL. Hugh b 1814 Laurens Co, SC was the son of a James. Do any of you have information on the James Henderson who was on page 21 of the 1820 U. S. Census for Laurens Co, SC ? He was age 26-30 and had 4 young sons under 10 years of age. He removed to Gwinett Co, GA and had Land Lot #84 on Wolf Creek, Suwanee Valley from Jan 31, 1823 until after 1830. I believe him to be the father of my Hugh Mahaffey HENDERSON b 1814 in Laurens, and the spouse of a daughter of Hugh Mahaffey. Her name could be Sarah. Since he lived in the vicinity of the BURNS families and Raeburn/Rabun Creek, near Hickory Tavern, I have some reason to believe that James could be the son of Charles HENDERSON b Dec 1764 Goose Creek Dist, Loudoun Co, VA- d Dec 1849 in Chestnut Ridge, Laurens Co, SC; and his wife Edy MONTGOMERY b abt 1760-1770 and d 9 Sep 1842 Chestnut Ridge, Laurens, SC. Charles and Edy had several sons , Charles Jr., James, Canada, Thomas, Nathan and William. Charles was said to be a son of Thomas and Frances HENDERSON of VA and Laurens, SC. Do you know anything more on these families ? reply to Helen Austin of Decatur, AL [email protected] ==== SCROOTS Mailing List ==== Go To: #, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z, Main |
