Jefferson County, TN 1850 Census : Henderson

Interesting. I noted in an earlier post about George and Nancy Henderson .. asking where the hell did they go?

Sort of like playing the game "Where in the world is 'George and Nancy Henderson' (theme song playing in my head 'where in the world is Carmen Santiago'

It was noted on another website that there was a George and Nancy Henderson who was in Jefferson County, TN in the 1850 Census:

George Henderson: 63
Nancy Henderson: 44
Thomas Henderson : 22
Mary Henderson : 25
Nancy Henderson: 23

Birth: North Carolina for all….

Except....that is wrong. I know that Nancy was born in North Carolina..or her father was. George was born in Virginia..either that OR... the 1880 census for Stephen in Grainger Co, TN is wrong for stating that his dad was born in Virginia.

So let's go with this. Family names. My gggreat grandpa was Thomas. I bet you that Stephen had a brother named Thomas he was fond of. So let's do a research on Thomas living in Jefferson.
