I'm hoping I can connect with someone else with my Dennis line.
I finally found my great-grandmother, Sarah Helen Dennis, in the 1860 Rusk Co. Tx census. She's with her parents, James and Elizabeth Dennis.
By 1870, the father drops out of the picture, and the family has moved to Washington Co. Ark.
Then, in 1880, Sarah Helen Dennis does not show up on a census, but I have her original marriage license having her marrying in Lamar Co. Texas in June of 1880.
I figure she must have traveled with family to Lamar Co. sometime between 1870 and 1880.
Sarah had a brother named Thomas.
