Thomas, the Pioneer settled in an area called Rocky Springs, about three miles wast of the settlement called Bean Station.
William: The male members of William's Family seem to be accounted for
as most of them died young. Father Thomas deeded 286 acres of land to
William. He lived his entire life on this land, which was in the same
area where his father lived. There is a cemetery there with several
Henderson's in it. It is at the junction of US Highway 11W and 25E.

Notes for ETHELDRED J. HENDERSON:
Date of birth, March 13, 1810 from tombstone is in question. The stone
was carved by Knoxville stone-cutter Robert McIntyre, who appears in
the Knoxville Directory from 1859-1882. He was not listed in the 1850
census for Knoxville.
I was probably placed by Ethlered's son, William A. Henderson after his
sister, Mary Ann's death in 1875. he and his mother, Emeline were still
alive. This explains the motto on the monument:
