Benjamin Hensley was born 8 Sep 1822 per his tombstone.
That agrees with his ages on the 1860 and 1880 census each of
which show him born ca 1821/22. He was born in Rockingham Co., VA
(presumably). Benjamin is a proven child of Benjamin Hensley (c1790) and Nelly Meadows, as named in estate records dated 1896. While his father was alive Benjamin was often listed as Benjamin Jr., though not always. Benjamin would have been about 7 or 8 years old by the time of the 1830 census. Benjamin Hensley (c1790) had two boys aged 5-9 (born ca 1820/25) with him in 1830 in Rockingham. Benjamin Hensley would have been about 17 or 18 years old for the 1840 census so he should be in the 15-19 age group (born ca 1820/25). Benjamin (c1790) had one boy that age with him on that census. On 10 Feb 1846 Benjamin Hensley Jr obtained a marriage bond in Rockingham to marry Rebecca Breeden, daughter of Jacob Breeden. John Breeden was bondsman. Rebecca Breeden was born 8 Feb 1824 per her tombstone, presumably born in Rockingham Co., VA. Her father is listed as Jacob Breeden on the marriage bond. There was no one of that name in Rockingham on the 1850 census, but there was a Job Breeden (c1801) with wife Sarah (c1805). Perhaps the bond should read "Job" instead of "Jacob" (I have not seen the original, only a transcript, so I don't know if it was misinterpreted). Benjamin and Rebecca are listed on the 1850 census in Rockingham three houses from his parents.
They are still in Rockingham for the 1860 census, next door to his parents.
They are still in Rockingham for the 1870 census. Numerous relatives were nearby.
They were on the 1880 census in Rockingham. Various relatives were listed nearby.
Rebecca Breeden Hensley died on 28 Oct 1905 and is buried at the Hensley Community Cemetery in Rockingham County. Benjamin Hensley died on 15 Feb 1908 and is buried by his wife. |
