(this is new information and does not repeat my previous queries)

Does anyone have information about this Captain James HENDERSON who is on the
1790 census for Laurens Co, SC ?

I am sending this to HENDERSON and SC lists to try to find informants who know
something about the Colonial families of HENDERSON, MAHAFFEY, TINNY, BONDS,
SIMMONS who were related somehow in the ancestry of Hugh Mahaffey HENDERSON, b
1814 in Laurens.

[email protected] posted a query about Capt James Henderson, who had a dau
Mary Polly who m Henry Irby. I am hoping that she or one of you other
HENDERSON researchers can send me some linkage for the few HENDERSON who lived
in Laurens from bef 1779 until at least 1820-1830.   Thanks
