William, being in this area before with my wife's side, be careful. It just might not be the whole truth and nothing but the truth!!! If fact go back to the Marty Grant site and check some of theses names.
When one looks at the census's you'll find that the kids ages sometimes don't compute. This leaves questions????
I will say, I think no matter what the order of fathers are
during this time frame(1700's)it would end up as follows:

Birth: 1583 in Devon "Hemsley", Norfork, England 1
Death: 1654 in Northhampton Co. VA 1 2 3
Note:
The Hengsteleg, Henxelegh, Hensleigh name has been found in Devonshire England records dating to 1200 A.D., but regardless of the many spellings the standard spelling of Hensley has become more acceptable.
The Hensley Family History: First recorded in English history as Hengstelge (1228 AD), Henxeleg (1270 AD) and Hensleigh (1350 AD). Surname meaning "dweller of the wood frequented by wild birds" or "dwellers in the woods".
Hensleys lived in Devon Village, located near Tiverton, England in the Seele Manor called Hensleigh House which still stands. Walts de Hensleigh, was master of the house in Ad 1350.
About two hundred and thirty-three (233) years later, William Hensley was born in Hemsley, Norfork, England around 1583 and died in Northhampton County, Virginia in 1654. He migrated to the Virginia Colony with his son James and his wife, Sarah Lyttle around 1622.

Death: 1665 in Northhampton Co. VA 1 2 3
Note:
Migrated to the Virginia Colony abt.1622 with his wife and Father with a land patent for 300 acres of the Middle Precinct of the Eastern Shore Line. He established a plantation in the Tidewater section of VA near Accomack Settlement. Occupation- Indentured Servant
Long before the first white settlers arrived in what is now Virginia, the Native Americans called the Eastern Shore by the name Accawmacke ---meaning the "across the water place". Accawmacke was settled very early by the English. According to history, the natives on the Eastern Shore were friendly and access to the area was easy. The word Chesapeake is the modern English spelling of the native term for "great water". To the early settlers, this "great water" made for easier travel than trying to go into the interior of the New World. So, early settlement was concentrated in the coastal areas.
The original shire of Accomac, created in 1634, covered the entire Eastern Shore. The name of the shire was changed to Northampton in 1642. (James Jr. was born here in 1642.) This name change was part of an effort by the English to eliminate "heathen" names in the New World. So, an English name, Northampton, was chosen. By the year 1663, many, many settlers has chosen the Eastern Shore as their new home. It was decided that the area should be divided into two counties. So, the northern half got back its original name--- but spelled Accomac. (In 1940 it was changed to include the K in the spelling ... Accomack.)
