Milton R Hensley:
Notes:
!NOTES:Birth is ca 1828/29 per 1850 and 1860 census, or ca 1819/20 per 1870 census. However, to reconcile him with the court record for his birth, he would have to be born prior to 1827, so I put his birth at ca 1826/27.

Notes:
!NOTES:I have no proof, but I wouldn't be surprised if she's the daughter of William Dixon and Elizabeth Head. They married 1824, so that fits. They were in Monroe Co., IN, so that fits. Nancy and John Hensley would have been 1st cousins, so that also fits.;
