Henderson Family Introduction

Our Henderson roots are traced back to Mary Henderson also known as "The Widow
Mary
Henderson of 1790 US Census for Laurens, South Carolina." We really do not even
know her husband's name for sure. But The Widow Mary's log cabin currently sets
in Laurens County, S.C., and a family member owns the farm and has the
documentation to prove her existence.
There on a hill is the family Henderson
cemetery that probably has most of the ancestors that we are looking for but
there are no names on the stones except one; Elizabeth Brock Henderson. Mastin
Lee Henderson's first wife and the mother of his children.
Over the years, we have tried to
identify and write about many of the Henderson family members that lived in
Laurens County, S.C., and relocated to other parts of America.

HENDERSON
There may be something to this
information but we do not have it confirmed!
Was The Widow
Mary possibly a daughter-in-law of the Thomas HENDERSON family of South
Carolina?
The late Bob Henderson, author and
researcher, thought so. We have never confirmed it!
His family was:
Thomas HENDERSON Jr b: ABT 1730/1735 in,, VA. He died 1806 in, Larens, SC
and was buried 1806 in Prob. Big Nob, Laurens, SC.
Thomas married Frances Unknown FRANKEY in,,VA. Frances was born ABT 1735/1740
in,,VA
or PA. She died 1811/1812 in, Laurens, SC and was buried 1811/1812 in Prob.
Big Nob, Laurens, SC.
They had 14 children.
He wrote a book entitled "Our House of
Henderson" by Robert H. Henderson. You can find out more about this book and
his Henderson lineage at:
Henderson Books
What happened to
James B. Henderson's family that lived in Smith County, Troup, Texas?
They were on the Smith County census
for 1870 and disappeared after that. Did they go back to Alabama? Did they move
somewhere else in Texas? Lula and Minnie were the two daughters. Who did
they marry? Who were their children?
I have three leads on Lula Henderson through marriage maybe:
Lula Henderson married Kirke Perry, 3
Jul 1892 in Smith County, Texas.
Lula Henderson married Monroe Harris,
21 Oct 1891 at Jax Texas (Houston area).
Lula Henderson married Robert L.
McDaniel on 13 Mar 1895 at Erath, Texas.
Does anyone know who any of these
Lula's parents were?
