Found this interesting from : http://www.us-roots.org/colonialamerica/census/1840/1840tn_eh.html:
SOURCE: 1840 Census of Pensioners Revolutionary or Military Services;
With the names, ages, and places of residence
Returned by the marshalls of the several judicial districts; under
The Act for Taking the Sixth Census :
| FIRST NAME | LAST NAME | AGE | HEAD OF HOUSEHOLD | TOWN | COUNTY | DISTRICT |
|---|
| David | Henderson | 49 | David Henderson | Districts No. 10 & 11 | Lincoln | Middle | |
| George | Henderson | 84 | G****e Hender**n | Overton | Middle | ||
| Pleasant | Henderson | 84 | James M. Henderson | Carroll | Western |
Why is this interesting?
David Henderson was in : Lincoln County
George Henderson in 1840 was in : Overton County (OV) - this George would be born in 1756
Pleasant Henderson (head of household: James M. Henderson)- was in Carroll County
Relation? Somewhere down the line but not my George :( guess this famous George is harder to find than I could imagine. But still this is quite interesting!
