!NOTES:I have no primary source documents proving *any* of the children I have listed for William and Ankey;

!NOTES:I am a FamilyFinder DNA match with Mary Jane Erwin and her brother Ernest. They are descendants of Agnes Hensley Godsey. We found no other common ancestors.
- We are 5th cousins, 3x removed if Agnes Hensley Godsey is a daughter of William Hensley (father of my Larkin), but her parentage isn't proven. However, it is obvious that Agnes and Larkin are closely related, eithier siblings or 1st cousins at least;
