YVONNE ARD 8/29/00
Yvonne:I am a descendant of a KENT family who came to Kemper Co, MS in the 1800's from NC>GA>AL>MS.
My g-g-grandfather was Peter W.G.KENTb. Aug. 19, 1819 SC d. after 1854 m. Clara
Unknown about 1838.
wife #2 m. Nancy Ann OWENS b. Apr.9, 1812 SC
d. Apr. 20, 1896 MS
m. Nancy Ann OWENS 1839 in GA.
Family lived there until Peter disappeared when he went "to bring in the calves"No record of death.Did he just walk away from his wife and 5 daughters and a son?
My Kents from MS are Peter's offspring, Epherim Henry KENT, the only son.
Would love to hear any suggestions you might have.Have been looking for a lead for quite a while.
Thanks
