Nancy Hensley was born ca 1775/1794 per her age on the 1820 census of 26-44.

I don't know if Nancy was born a Hensley or if she was widowed by a yet unidentified Mr. Hensley. If so, her husband died prior to 1820.

At this time I only have one record for Nancy, and that is the 1820 census. I did not find her on the later census records and there are no earlier ones extant for Patrick County.

She is on the 1820 census in Patrick Co., VA. She is indexed by Ancestry.com as Nancy Hunley. I have examined the original record and I'm reasonably certain it says Hensley, but there is room for alternate interpretations. She is listed between the households of Aaron Bowman and Thomas Beasley.
