Hi Barbara,
Sorry, I just don't have the information that you are seeking.I don't know the parents of this couple.At best, I can only give you my opinion here.And you may want to see if you can find any connections based upon what I THINK is likely.
Based upon other families, I think it is likely/possbile? that the John Trent who married Frances Garrison is a descendant of a much earlier Trent family who lived in Henrico Co VA.
My thinking isthat the John b Trent that you are researchingis a descendant of Wm Trent and Ursula Branch of Henrico Co VA.Ursula was (reportedly) b in 1671.If I have tracked these families correctly, they are related to the families who lived in Accomack, VA, and later related to Surry/Sussex VA.At any event, this Branch line connects to the family of Pres Thomas Jefferson and lots of interesting information can be found due to this connection. Connected to this family are Goode.As in Ursula Goode. Over time, these families (Branch) became related to the Wilburn families who also had roots in Accomack VA during the mid 1600's and who had descendants who settled into Surry/Sussex VA by the early 1700's.
I also show three Trent/Overholser marriages within the family that you are researching.But again, I have too many gaps to show proof re: my conjuctures.Sorry, I could not be of more help.
Cheers to you.
