Searching for the parents of both Warner David KENT & Susan A. JORDAN. Their children & families are all recorded & verified. It's their ancestry that I'm having such trouble with!

Death: 9 Nov 1892 (gravestone, death records)
Father: ????Possibly John (Samuel?)Kent
Mother:

Spouse: Susan A. (Anderson?) JORDAN
Birth: __ ___ 1813(Gravestone inscriptions)
Death: 31 Jul 1892(Gravestone inscriptions)

Father: Perhaps John JORDAN??? (Also possible Jerdone?!?)
Mother: ??

Family found in 1860 & 1880 Spotsylvania census
with Five Children

William Franklin KENT (ancestor line)
Birth: 26 Oct 1852, Fluvanna, VA
Marriage on 8 Dec 1878 to Emily Charlotte CONLEY (b. 23 Dec 1855, d. 11 Oct 1928; daughter of Henry CONLEY and Frances Ann WHITLOCK; Spotsylvania, VA)
Daughter: 1 Sep 1879 Susie Conley KENT

Daughter: 25 Jul 1886 Cora Lee KENT (199)
Daughter: 24 May 1892 Charlotte Mae (Lottie) KENT
Death:1 Jan 1938       

Columbus Warner KENT
Birth       __ ___ 1846 ( age 14 in the 1860 Census)
Death       __ Jul 1869

Now I know there is a Columbus Kent m Eliza Henderson (1823) who is possibly a brother/cousin of Warner; but I cannot find the connection there. There is another researcher with these names, but not with any verifiable dates that i can find yet.

Susan Anderson JORDAN/Warner KENT filed for the marriage license in Louisa County, VA, 6 weeks or so prior to the actual wedding, which is recorded in the Fluvanna County, VA book.

I've seen Warner's name as Miner & Garner in various registers.
Thank you so much!
Deborah Humphries
