Special thanks to Jim Brown for data shared on this family. Mathias Hensley was born ca 1837/38 in Tennessee, probably Greene County. There were three men of this name in the region, so there is room for confusion. This one is the oldest. The second oldest is Mathias W. Hensley (c1840), his 1st cousin, the last is Mathias Hensley (c1852), his nephew. Mathias Hensley is a son of Samuel Hensley (c1790) and Catherine McDavid. This is proven, more or less, by widow Catherine living with Mathias in 1870, though no relationships are given on that record. Mathias would have been home with his parents in 1840, and presumably about 2 years old, so he should be enumerated in the "under 5" age group (born ca 1835/40). Samuel Hensley (c1790) was the only one in Greene County with an apparent son that age. I did not find Mathias on the 1850 census, nor did I locate his parents Samuel and Catherine anywhere that year. On 7 Jul 1856, Mathias Hensley obtained a marriage bond in Greene County, Tennessee to marry Louisa Jane Hamilton. They married on 30 Jul 1856, same county. I don't know when or where Louisa was born or who her parents were. Louisa apparently died sometime before 3 Aug 1859, for on that date, Mathias Hensley obtained a marriage bond in Greene County to marry Rachel Adeline Wines. They married on the next day, 4 Jul 1859. Adeline was born ca 1842/43 in Tennessee. I don't know who her parents were. Mathias and Adeline were listed on the 1860 census in Greene County just 6 houses from Isham Hensley (c1820), a possible 1st cousin. 1860 census abstract: (Explanation of this census) (Note: The dates at the end of each line are not part of the original census, but are approximate birth years based on age) 1860 GREENE CO, TN Page 366B House/Family # 512/ 494 -- CIVIL DISTRICT 17 HENSLY MATHIAS 22 M W FAR.LB 40 TN 1837/1838 HENSLY ADALINE 17 F W TN 1842/1843 Apparently Rachel Adeline Wines Hensley died before 20 Sep 1866, for on that date Mathias Hensley married Margaret Diserne in Greene County, Tennessee. I don't know who her parents were. They are listed on the 1870 census in Scott Co., VA. Mathias's widowed mother is living with them.
They are on the 1880 census in Wise Co., VA next door to Mathias brother Samuel Hensley.
