Is anyone researching the family of William Hensley. He was born around 1838 and married to Hannah Wilson and then to Nellie Peake (Peek). There were several children: Marcus, Hiram, Frank, Kimsey, Axie, Oscar, Eldithy, Baldronia and probably more. I have information on this family I would love to share with anyone who might be interested.
William was still living in the 1920 cenus of Ramseytown with his wife Nellie. I have not been able to find a death certificate for him. Yancey County doesn't show one and neither does Buncombe.
I am particularly interested in who his parents were. I am pretty sure I know, but need proof.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Lynn
