PUBLIC RECORDS
A Patrick Henley shown in census Albemarle Co, NC, 1696

GENEALOGY IN PRINT - BOOKS AND LIBRARY COLLECTIONS
North Carolina Hist. Society, The Quarterly, June 1968, says Patrick came to America 1642
and settled in Philadelphia.  His tombstone bears the date of his death, 2-28-1698.  For more, read on ...

Just to demonstrate that research isn't necessarily correct just because someone has collected a
large mass of data: The Cranford Collection, Forsyth Co. Public Library, Winston-Salem, NC, says Patrick
came from England 1682 to Pennsylvania with wife, Sarah.  According to Goodwell,  his first wife was
Mary Scott, who gave birth to a daughter in 1686 (see below).  Cranford material also says Patrick and Sarah
came to Philadelphia with William Penn Oct 20, 1682, on the Welcome. The Welcome Society does not list
him.  Cranford says Patrick's brother, Robert Henley, was Lord Chancellor of England in 1682.  This too seems
to be lacking proof.   

From Asheboro, NC, Public Library, Barbara Grigg Collection, a letter written March 27, 1974 to Barbara
Grigg (a Henley researcher)  by Marian Henley Goodwell (Mrs. Kenneth A. Goodwell, 206 Henley Road South,
Richmond, Indiana 47374), Oct 1988.  The following material is also from Goodwell, author of "Our Henley
Grandfathers."   First is "a progress report" of her research, then follows excerpts from her book.

Goodwell writes in her letter to Grigg: "Most of the established dates ( I present) are from Quaker Records. 
A 'headright claim' made by Patrick in 1693/94 names his deceased wife as Mary, and lists but one daughter,
Mary.  Therefore Elizabeth and John were probably children of Sarah, to whom Patrick was married by 1693/94. 
Anne's birth date is from a Quaker Record and all the children are associated with Sarah, widow of Patrick, in
later records.  The earliest record which could refer to Patrick is found in Hathaway -- the death of a 'Mr. Henley,
' 9.4.1691. This could logically refer to his first wife and be a mistake in copying or recording.  'North Carolina
Higher Court Record shows a debt Patrick owed 'to your wife's funeral, to the trouble of you and our wife's sickness,
to paling your wife's grave.'  The debt was to Francis Heartly whose will was probated 5.2.1692, so the debt had to
be incurred before that, while he was still living.

"The two volumes of North Carolina High Court Records give us a wealth of references to Patrick.  On 7.10.1692 he
was sued by Henry Jenkins, and in 1693 by Joseph Hallett.  He served as a juror 3 times in 1693, 3 times in 1694, 3 times
in 1695, and once in 1696.  Beginning 2.6.1694 Sarah is mentioned as his wife, and many times thereafter, usually in
connection with suits brought against them concerning her former husband, John Culpepper.  In 1694 Patrick petitioned
for ownership of the plantation on which he lived.  In 1695 he was appointed auditor of the estate of Adam Gamball,
mariner.  Other suits in 1693 and also in 1697-98 would seem to indicate his knowledge of ships and sailing.  One
document mentions him as Master of the 'Jane & Sarah,' a vessel sailing from North Carolina in 1698.  On 7.24.1696
Patrick gave Daniel Akehurst, a prominent resident, his power of attorney, and appears then to have removed with
his family 'from this Government' to Philadelphia.

"Patrick's will was made the same day in July, 1696, in Albemarle, N.C., leaving his estate to his wife unless she 'die
before her return from this voyage,' then naming his children including 'to child wife now goes with'.  Since Anne
was not born until 1698, Sarah probably lost the baby mentioned in the will.  Or if Anne's birth date is New Style, 1.1.1698
could have been Old Style 1697 and be this child carried in July, 1696.

"A Philadelphia record shows Patrick paid rent (tax) there in 1697 or 1698.  Also in Philadelphia his wife, Sarah,
settled three debts after his death, for 100 Pds., 12 Pds. adn 85 Pds.  A Quaker record in Philadelphia establishes Patrick's
death - a record of his burial copied into 'an account of the Burialls of such as are not friends witin this Town of Philadelphia -
the record of friends being distinctly taken in another place of this Book.'  Date 2.28.1698.

"Patrick's will was administered by Sarah in Philadelphia 5.20.1698.  Since she was living, his property would
have all gone to her, including his 'estate either in Europe or America.'  There also exists in Philadelphia a partial inventory
of his possessions taken after his death, dated 4.20.1698 ...

"A 1698 or 1699 land survey petition in North Carolina indicates Patrick's heirs did own land in North Carolina.  If Sarah
made a trip to England concerning property there, no record it it has been found.

"Two 1694 court records in N.C. indentify him 'Patrick Henley of Precinct of Pasquotank.'  In 1696 the power of attorney
action is from 'Patrick Henley of Roanoke.'  (Roanoke was a contemporary name for Edenton in Chowan County.)

"From the above facts we might assume that Patrick Henley was a man of some resources - an estate in Europe as well as
America, land owned in Pasquotank and Chowan Counties, debts incurred, and debts paid, Master of a sailing vessel.  Most
of our information about him is after he was married to Sarah and there is always the possibility that the money and property
were hers.  John Culpepper was the son of an established family and no doubt left his wife some property.  We also know
Patrick was not a Friend at his death, though his wife, Sarah, was from a Quaker family, and all his children were Friends
later.  He sailed at least one ship and other records show further knowledge of and traffic with mariners and shipping.  He
was living in North Carolina in the Albemarle region by 1692, removed to Philadelphia in 1696 and died there in 1698.

 "The Albemarle region of North Carolina was sparsely settled at that time.  There were no villages or settlements -
just 'landings,' swamps and some cleared 'plantations'.  Transportation would have been principally by boat so knowledge
of the sea and ships would have been normal.  It was a barter society with tobacco the most valuable currency, and corn
and potatoes also being important crops.  One debt Patrick was to pay in 'wheat at the next ensueing crop'.  Marriages were
early and remarriages quick, for it was unsafe for single women.  It is likely that to serve as juror in the Court, as Patrick did,
one had to be a freeholder - own a certain amount of land.  Although the Court records of him are over just a few years, that
is perhaps because none, or very few, have survived from earlier years.  Since dates are before 1752 when 'Old Style' changed
to 'New Style', slight discrepancies may be due to this ..."

 Untrue "Family traditions,"  as mentioned in Goodwell's letter to Grigg:
That Patrick sailed from England to America on the Welcome in 1682.
His brother Rober Henley was Lord Chancellor of England.
Patrick arrived in America in 1642. 

Another tradition Goodwell mentions without comment as to accuracy: That Patrick was thought to be Irish because of the red
hair prominent in the family.

The following is from her book:  "For Quakers, a forefather who arrived on the Welcome with William Penn is analogous to
another's pride in being a Mayflower descendant. The Welcome Society, founded in 1906, has researched some 300 claimants
and found only 60 likely to have actually come on the Welcome.  Patrick is not even among the claimants and there seems to
exist no evidence so far to support the family tradition.

"There is nothing in in early Philadelphia records to point to Patrick's presence there until 1697 or 1698, when he would have
come from North Carolina.

"Since many Albemarle families came first to Virginia and then traveled to North Carolina to settle where more land was being
opened up and was available, one could consider that possibility with Patrick.  Perhaps -and probably - by coincidence there are
the following interesting facts:  A Reynolds Henley settled in James City County, VA (the Williamsburg area) in 1661.  There are
records of just one son, Leonard, who remained there.  He married an Elizabeth Richardson, and one of their grandsons was named
Patrick.  Our Patrick's will, 1696, was witnessed by a Stephen Richardson, and a Stephen Richardson the same day witnessed the
court request Patrick made to give Daniel Akehurst power of attorney for him.

"There was also a Peter Henley who was Chief Justice of the Province of North Carolina in Edenton in 1757 (his death).  His son
John claimed land in England at 'Abbot's Wooton, Dorset.'  An Esajah Henley was a legatee in a Chowan Precinct court case earlier.

"'Trueblood Family in America' says Patrick's sister, Ellinor, married Stephen Scott in Pennsylvania.  They moved to Pasquotank Co.,
NC circa 1700 with Patrick's widow and children where Stephen m/2 Elizabeth Jordan, and d. 1710.  This seems to support the theory
that Patrick came to Philadelphia first since he had a sister there.

"'History of Perquimans County' says Elizabeth Jordan, daughter of James and Elizabeth (Ratcliff) Jordan (who were m.1688), m.
Stephen Scott of Pasquotank County, NC.  This Elizabeth Jordan couldn't have been born before c1690, but could have been 15 by
1705 to marry Stephen Scott who first married Ellinor and who d. 1710.

"Mayo family records say Elizabeth, daughter of Edward Mayo and sister of Sarah, m/1 c1698 Stephen Scott who died in 1710. 
This could be Stephen Scott who m/1 Ellinor Henley, if the dates are somewhat wrong.

"Patrick's will, written in 1696, mentions brother-in-law Stephen Scott.  Either Ellinor Henley or Elizabeth Mayo as Stephen's
wife could make him brother-in-law to Patrick.

"To further complicate the situation, Patrick's 1696 will was witnessed by both Ellinor Scott and Elizabeth Scott in Albemarle, NC,
and Ellinor Scott was present in 1698 when the will was administered in Philadelphia.

"This is a progress report written for the purpose of giving general information.  It is not meant to include all the facts or to be specific
in detail ... my purpose has been to summarize Patrick's story in narrative style, using sources generously shared with me by others ..."

This following is from the book later produced by Marian Goodwell:  Patrick spelled his name "Henly."  Most after him used the "e." 

"The earliest as yet discovered information about Patrick Henly places him in Barbados in 1686 when he and his wife, Mary, had
their daughter, Mary, baptized in the Parish of St. Michael. The following year, on May 30th 1687, Patrick Henly and Thomas Henly
witnessed the will of a Henry Leeland of the town of St. Michaels.  The Island of Barbados had been occupied by the British since
1605 and was a prosperous sugar-growing colony.  It ws a popular stop over for vessels sailing from England before they proceeded
to the American coastal ports.  As early as 1680 the Council and Assembly of Barbados petitioned the Lords of Trade and Plantations
in England: 'People no longer come to Barbados, many having departed to Carolina, Jamaica, and the Leeward Islands in hope of settling
the land which they cannot obtain here.'  Patrick and Mary his wife were in Carolina by 1691, perhaps for this reason.    

"Mary died in the Albemarle area of Carolina in what is now Pasquotank Co, NC.  The date of September, 1691, is found in Hathaway,
and it is confirmed by a debtor bill against Patrick filed later in the North Carolina courts:
        - to your wife's funeral
        - to the trouble of you and your wife's sickness
        - to paling your wife's grave.

"Mary, wife of Patrick, is named in his headright claim.  These claims were made for colonization purposes.  A settler was entitled to
fifty acres of land not only for himself but for each person whom he imported to Carolina.  Patrick's list also included a second Mary
Henley, his mother.  This was not his daughter for children could not be named.  Both Mary Henlys were also listed by a neighbor as
'Mr. Henly' wife and his mother,' confirming this explanation.

 "With the use of the above record, we can assume that Patrick arrived in Carolina sometime between 1687 and 1691, with his wife,
Mary, his small daughter, Mary, and his mother, Mary.  Some family stories mention a sister, Ellinor Henly, who married Stephen Scott,
but this is unlikely.  The story persisted because Stephen Scott was named Patrick's brother-in-law in his will -- not because he was
married to a mythical sister of Patrick, but because Patrick's second wife and Stephen's wife were sisters.  Stephen had a sister, Ellinor
Scott, who appears to have lived for a time in Patrick's household.  Of such are the makings of 'traditions.'

"Family legends usually say that Patrick Henly came from England.  'Henley' is a common name in England.  There is a city named 'Henley
on thames' and in Stratfor on Avon Shakespeare's birthplace is on 'Henley Street.'  Although Patrick was probably from England, the occasional
legend that he came from Ireland is credible with such a given name.

"The far northeastern section of today's North Carolina where Patrick Henly lived was settled by trappers, traders and adventurers coming
from Virginia beginning in the 1650's and 1660's.  It was known first as Virginia's "Southern Plantation" and then as the "Albemarle."  The
government was in the hands of eight Lords Proprietors - absentee feudal landlords living in London.  The settlers suffered under unfair laws
and taxes as well as self-seeking appointed rulers and the early years of the colony were marked with disorders, confusion and violence. 
This area was referred to as North Carolina as distinguished from Charles Towne which was in South Carolina.

"Patrick Henly, since he brought his family with him, certainly came to Carolina seeking land and opportunity.  He lived in Pasquotank
County along the broad Pasquotank River in the Newbegun Creek area south of the present day Elizabeth City.  This was a sparsely
settled area having no towns, no public buildings, no churches and only paths communicating and traveling almost entirely by water. 
The colony was remote from the rest of America, the route to the outside beign through the dense and hazardous Great Dismal Swamp
to the north or by sea to the east.  Ships faced a difficult passage through a no longer existing inlet in the shifting sands of the Outer
Banks into the Atlantic Ocean.

"Sometime near the end of the year 1692 or early in 1693 Patrick Henly 'Entermarried with' Sarah Mayo, widow of John Culpeper, a
man whose name survives in history notorious for his participation in Carolina's Culpeper Rebellion in 1678 and 'never in his element
but whilst fishing in troubled waters.'  Sarah was the daughter of Edward Mayo, a Justice and long-time Clerk of the Court and a
prominent member of the Society of Friends (Quaker) in Pasquotank County, North Carolina.

"From the time of his marriage to the widow Culpeper, Patrick was involved in dozens of Court actions concerning his affairs.  Most
if not all of them were in defense of or as a result of his wife Sarah's inheritance from her late husband, John Culpeper.  Patrick was
named administrator for Thomas Clancy's estate because John Culpeper had been his 'greatest creditor.'  He was issued a warrant for
1100 acres of land in Pasquotank County for which he used the 'headrights' of twenty-two persons all but four of whom may be traced
to Sarah's inheritance from her first husband.   ..."

The Cranford Collection has a letter from "Mrs. Duncan," a genealogist and author, which quotes Patrick's will as stating: "I give unto the
child that my wife now goes with al, if it be a boy two Negroes, if it be a girl one Negro, either boy or girl ..." so Sarah was pregnant
in 1696.  Mrs. Duncan says English records do not "uphold" the tradition that Robert was Lord Chancellor of England.

THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE HENLEY FAMILY IN VIRGINIA IN THE EARLY DAYS

It is impossible to give an accurate and detailed account of the earlier development of the HENLEY FAMILY in the Colony of Virginia,
as it gradually established itself through the three original ancestors who appear on these early land records. Of the three HENLEYS
mentioned in the early land records, evidence points to the THOMAS HENLEY as the ancestor of the family here being discussed.

THOMAS DODSON, who patented a tract of land in NORTHUMBERLAND COUNTY in 1650, claimed the headrights of 24 persons whom he
was supposed to have brought into the colony. Among them were THOMAS HENLEY, and MARY LINTON, RICE JONES and RICHARD NEIMS.
The location of his patent did not necessarily indicate or determine the location of the emigrants whose names were attached thereto.
We know that Rice Jones and Richard Nelms located in Lancaster and Northumberland County where they are found long afterwards. We
also KNOW that the LINTONS settled in Lower Norfolk, with MOSES LINTON, the head of the tribe; and since, also long afterwards.  The
Lower Norfolk records show plenty of HENLEYS there, we think it almost conclusive proof that since THOMAS HENLEY and MARY LINTON
were on the same Dodson patent, the HENLEYS and LINTONS both settled in Lower Norfolk. This conclusion is bourne out by later entries
on the records.

NEIGHBORS of the HENLEYS and LINTONS in Norfolk were THOMAS BULLOCK and Ensign THOMAS KERLING (Wm. & Mary 25; page 36).
KEKLING was 24 years old in 1637 and BULLOCK was 28 in 1640. Both were heads of families and had children. JOHN RICHARDSON, another
of their neighbors was 20 years old 1640, RICHARD FLEMING settled on LITTLE ORK. in Lower Norfolk in 1643. (Nugent - p. 147.) By the end
of the century, around 1700.  We find the FLEMINGS, KEELINGS, RICHARDSONS and BULLOCKS all residing within the bounds of St. Peter's
Parish in King & Queen County, showing an ??dus of all these families to that section of the colony, where they had taken up lands and
established plantations. Meantime there had been intermarriages in these families, and in a generation or two we find them related. As
for the HENLEYS, they multiplied and replenished, and the "LOWER NORFOLK ANTIQUARY" by James, shows numerous members of the
HENLEY family still living in LOWER NORFOLK COUNTY for many generations, and among names bourne by the family which appear on
these records were CHARLES, JAMES, THOMAS, JOHN, JESSE and MOSES HENLEY. January 28, 1792, JAMES HEATH was married to SARAH
HENLEY. The Heaths were related to CHRISTOPHER GARLINGTON, mentioned in the Dodson patent in 1650 with THOMAS HENLEY. The
"Lower Norfolk Antiquary" shows the interesting item that one "URSULA HENLEY, was a witness in the famous "witch trial" of GRACE
SHERWOOD, in PRINCES ANNE County (once a part of Lower Norfolk)in March, 1705-6."

GEORGE KEELING, called "Captain" on the New Kent Records, married URSULA FLEMING, and had a daughter URSULA KEELING. URSULA
FLEMING, the daughter of CHARLES FLEMING, a generation later, married to TARLETON WOODSON, etc. LEONARD KEELING who appears
in James City County in 1651/2 as a land owner, is believed by some to have been a brother of URSULA FLEMING and GEORGE KEELING.
The KEELINGS picked up the name LEONARD, from their kinfolks and Lower Norfolk and Princess Anne neighbors, the HENLEYS - into
which some of them had married - though we are unable to find the record of such a marriage. That it actually occurred is self-evident,
in the light of the history of the several families thereafter. And so we conclude;

THOMAS HENLEY, who came to Lower Norfolk (or Princess Anne, which was once the same) married, possibly a Reynolds, daughter of
KLIZA REYNOLDS (b. 1619) who was a widow and 41 years old in 1658. They had a son REYNOLDS HENLEY to whom a patent was issued
in JAMES CITY COUNTY, which had been due by on assignment from THOMAS HOLLIDAY, who had come to NORTHUMBERLAND COUNTY
with the HENLEY emigrants, as heretofore related.

Thereafter, on October 26, 1694, this Reynolds Honley lands was patented to his son LEONARD HENLEY. And that is where our present
HENLEY FAMILY of Virginia, begins.

This LEONARD HENLEY, who obtained his James City lands by patent in 1694, and/or his descendants shortly thereafter, probably
removed to NEW KENT COUNTY, where they joined their relatives and former associates, the KEELINGS, BULLOCKS, FLEMINGS and
RICHARDSONS, and there took on more kin -the DANDRIDGES.

Patrick Henley was a Quaker.  Probably born in Ireland.  He was a red-headed Irishman.  He sailed a ship, "The Jane and Sarah"
between Philadelphia and Elizabeth City, NC.  He died Feb 28, 1698. in Philadelphia and left a will dated 24 July 1696 in Albemarle Co,
NC, but filed in Philadelphia.  He had a brother and a sister: Robert Henley who was Lord Chancellor of England and Ellinor Henley
who married Stephen Scott.

By this we take it to mean that Anne was born after her father's death, but her father died in February of that year.

Lived in Nansemond Co. 1687.

6.  JOHN⁵ HENLEY II (JOHN⁴, SARAH³ MAYO, SARAH² MAGGS, GEORGE¹)^55,56,57 was born 07 Nov 1717 in Pasquotank Co., NC⁵⁷,
and died 10 Jul 1753 in Pasquotank Co., NC⁵⁸.  He married MARY JORDAN^59,60,61 08 Feb 1740 in Pasquotank Co, NC^62,63, daughter
of JOSEPH JORDAN and MARY RICKS.  She was born 1724, and died 30 Sep 1795 in This date may be in error. It's same as
Mary Albertson Henley.⁶⁴.

Notes for JOHN HENLEY II:
John and Mary were faithful members of the Society of Friends.  Goodwell says Mary is the oldest child and does not list Jesse. 
She says he was the brother of John Henley I.  Likewise, John's will does not mention Jesse, but does specify "between his widow
and four children," then names them.

GENEALOGY IN PRINT - BOOKS AND LIBRARY COLLECTIONS

From Cranford Collection, Colonial and State Records by Clark, Vol 24, page 987, Chapter XLII, 1788
An act for creating a town on the land of Thomas Dougan, in Randolph Co, NC (100 acres from Thomas Dougan) laid off into a
town called Johnstonville (later  becoming Asheboro, NC).  Jesse Hendley appointed one of the commissioners and trustees
designing, building and carrying on the said town to lay off the said lots and streets and alleys each lot to be 10 poles in front
and 16 poles back.  Where as there are 5 acres of land whereon the court house, prison and stocks do stand belonging to the said
county and conveyed by deed from Stephen Rigdon for the use of said county. (This Jesse Henly the great uncle of Maria Cranford)

North Carolina State Library
RandolphCounty was formed in 1779 from Guilford. It was named in honor of Peyton Randolph of Virginia, who was president of the
Continental Congress. It is in the central section of the State and is bounded by Chatham, Moore, Montgomery, Davidson, Guilford
and Alamance counties. Its present land area is 787.26 square miles and its population in 1990 was 106,546. The act establishing the
county authorized the first court and all subsequent courts to be held at the home of Abraham Reese unless otherwise decided upon
by the justices of the peace until a courthouse could be built. Commissioners were named in 1783 to select a site for the county seat.
This act directed that court be held at the home of William Bell until the courthouse was completed. In 1785 an act was passed removing
the court from the house of William Bell and allowing the justices at each court to decide where the next court would meet until the
courthouse was completed. In 1788 a town was established at the courthouse on the land of Thomas Dauggan. This town, was named
Johnstonville in honor of Samuel Johnston. In 1791 an act was passed authorizing the construction of a prison at the courthouse. In 1792
an act was passed authorizing commissioners to select a site in the center of the county and have a new courthouse erected, as the old
courthouse was not in the center of the county. In 1796 Asheborough was established as the county seat on the land of Jesse Henley. In
1819 a new courthouse was authorized to be built in Asheborough. Asheboro is the county seat.

Barbara Grigg Collection: Jesse Henly lived on Caraway, where Winborne Andrews now lives and was the father of John Henley. 
In the year 1786 Jesse Henly entered two hundred acres of land at and including the centre of the county.  In 1793 Jesse Henly conveyed
to the Justices of the county and their successors, for the public buildings, two acres of this land.  The county paid ten shillings for the
two acres which formed a rectangle twenty poles north and south and sixteen poles east and west.

Sons & Daughters of the Pilgrims (FTM Online library), testimony of Henley Eversole, born 1863, says Jesse was the son of John Henley,
born 11-7, 1717, died 7-10-1753 and his wife Mary Jordan, married August 1740.  Henley Eversole said Jesse's wife was "Nancy Crews,
died June 7, 1798."  Most other genealogists believe Jesse was the son of John Henley, born abt 1694.   Clarice H. Mitchell believes
John I and John II both had sons named Jesse.

LDS on-line search shows Jesse Hinley born 1725 to John and Isabel Newby Henley.  Married first Sarah Jones Oct 5, 1750 in
Perquimins, NC, born 1729 in Perquimins, died abt 1761 in Pasquotank.  Married second Ann "Pretow" Crew Jan 17, 1763 in Surry VA

Jesse Henley of Albemarle Co, NC (brother to John Henley) married (Mrs.) Ann Pretlow of Surry Co VA.  They located near Center
Church in Randolph Co, near Back Creek church.  Their progeny: John .... etc.  (LH's note: much of what is listed in the Quarterly

OTHER RESEARCHERS:

Hi L: ... since I didn't have the chance today to get the Eleanor Bell info copied, I thought I'd send some of it now to
further confuse you!  p. 180 - Jesse Henley, b. 1725 in Pasquotank Co. NC, d. 7-13-1801 in Randolph Co. NC; m/1 5-10-1750
- Sarah Jones, who d. ca 1761 in Pasquotank Co. NC.  Jesse...he was an overseer of the roads and main street in
Nixonton.  He bought and sold land and received Granville and Carteret Grants.  He was appointed guardian for children of
Benoni Pritchard, and daughter of John White, and John and Millicent Henly (sic), children of his brother John Henly.  In 1755
he served in the Muster Roll of Regiments of Pasquotank County, in the Quaker Regiment, which served in the capacity of
the present day Civil Defense, not as regular army.

In Jan 1763 Jesse requested a certificate by Surry MM, VA, to marry Ann (Crew) Pretlow. There is much traditional information
concerning Ann.  The most popular is that she was the daughter of an Indian Princess...After many years of research...there is still
no definite accurate background knowledge about Ann's ancestry.  The same misinformation about John Elmore, the Cherokee
Indian wife and their children has been handed down...Among the earliest Quakers mentioned were John Crew of the Colony
of VA who was an early organizer of meetings, a minister, and elder and treasurer of his MM and a missionary to the western
mountain foothill country of Virginia, a long journey overland on foot.  Tradition says that these travelers lived with the Indians
when near the tribes, converting many and making friends as they went.  John Elmore reportedly married an Indian maiden
named An-nah Wah-Kah (English name Sarah-on-Holston-River in the Cherokee Nation.  This river runs through Hawkins County
in the northeastern section of present TN, on the far side of the mountains).  Possibility:  the tribe, of which she was a member,
could have migrated northeasterly across the mountains into the Virginia foothills and was one visited by the missionary group. 
John Elmore married one of the maidens and took her back to his Meeting.  They had seven children.  The traditional record says:
"The children of John Elmore and An-nah Wah-Kah were taken and educated by the Society of Friends and married amongst them."

(I have the record of the children that has been handed down since before 1892 and the research I did for each of them.  They all
married and lived in Stokes and Guilford Counties, NC, and Jefferson County TN)  LH Note:  Unfortunately, the author didn't put this
list of children in her manuscript.  Hopefully, she also sent something to Raleigh on this.

To continue, p. 181 -
Much of the early traditional information does not agree with Hinshaw's abstracted records of the minutes of the meetings in Vol. I
for NC and Vol. 6 for VA.  For example:  Sarah Elmore m. Jesse Henley and d. in Randolph Co. NC in 1813.  Nowhere in records has
this statement been found.  Tradition also says that John Crew adopted Sarah Ann Elmore and changed her name to Ann Crew.  No
record of her was found until her marriage to Joshua Pretlow.  Ann Crew Pretlow reported married 7-7-1753 in the home of John Crew,
Charles City County, VA, Joshua Pretlow from Black Water MM.  They lived in Sussex County, Colony of VA, north of Perquimans Co. NC. 
he was born ca 1728 (?) , d. 1761.

Their Children:
1.  Rebeckah Pretlow, b. ca 1754; m. 5-17-1772 James Hunnicutt of Black Water MM.
2.  Thomas Pretlow, Jr., b. ca 1758; m. 9-20-1783 in Surry Co. VA Ann Bailey, dtr. of Samuel and Sarah of Surry Co. VA
3.  Anne Pretlow, b. ca 1760; m. Robert Ricks, who produced a certif. from Western Branch MM, Isle of Wight County, to marry.
     Rebeckah was ca 9 years of age, Thomas was ca 5 years of age, and Anne ca 3 years of age when Ann married Jesse Henly (sic). 
     The only records we have of them are in VA where Thomas Pretlow, probably a brother of Joshua, was their guardian after the
     death of Joshua, and they became a part of his family when Ann married Jesse Henly and removed to Pasquotank County NC.  In
     his will, Jesse left one dollar each to Rebeckah Hunnicutt, Thomas Pretlow, and Anne Ricks, his step-children.

Compare the above record of Sarah Elmore with the Time-Line of Jesse Henley taken from original Meeting Minutes and court records. 
From Symons Creek MM, 7-6-1750, Jesse requested certif. to Perquimans MM to marry Sarah Jones, who d. ca 1761 in Pasquotank Co.

Jesse Henley and Ann (Crew) Pretlow were at liberty to marry 1-15-1763 and were married during the next meeting.  No definite date
is determined for their removal to Rowan County, but because of the purchase of land in 10-21-1765, which evidently became the
home place since he built a mill there in 1770, and the last sale of his Pasquotank land in 1766, it seems likely that the move from
Pasquotank to Rowan County was ca 1765.  The first child, Isabel, was born 9-12-1763 in Pasquotank county, and son John was born
12-27-1766 in Rowan County.

Married 2 Ann Pretow Crew Jan 15, 1763, Surry MM, Surry, VA. 

Gordon Williams (Gordon_Williams@vfc.com) says: " Jesse (1725-1801) appeared in court records in Pasquotank Co on July 2, 1745
in relation to a deed.  By Oct 21, 1765, his name shows up in Rowan Co records when he purchased 140 acres on 'both sides of Trading
Path and both sides of Deep River in Rowan Co,' now Randolph.  On November 19, 1766, he was received into New Garden MM by
certificate from Pasquotank.  Later he was listed among the original members of Back Creek MM, organized in 1792.  He apparently
added to his land holdings from time to time.  In fact, some have thought he was a kind of land speculator, buying and selling to his
financial profit.  The records of Randolph Co (organized in 1779) show that he purchased at least 26 parcels of land.  At his death in
1801 he left a total of 5,452 acres to his children.  He was generous with his land.  He gave over 400 acres to three slave families
when he liberated them years before slavery was a burning issue.  On December 25, 1796, he gave 50 acres to 'establish a town at
site of courthouse to be called Asheborough.'  Jesse had at least 7 children.  His youngest son, Stephen, became the father of
David Vestal Henley, who with his wife is the subject of this chapter.  David, Stephen's youngest son, was only two years old when
his father died in 1820 of 'Cramp colic,' probably appendicitis.  In 1844 he married a Methodist girl, Eleanor Lassiter, whose family
were loyal and active members of Oak Grove Methodist Church on the west side of Uwharrie River.  The source of this information
was a book called 'Deep River Friends Meeting,' a book I obtained from the Greensboro Library.  I live in Greensboro."  Gordon says
Jesse married Anna Pritlow Jan 15, 1763 in Surry MM, Surry, VA.

Researcher Betty Vollenweiden says Jesse served, in 1755, in the Quaker Regiment of the Regiments of Pasquotank Co.  Apparently
this was a regiment for civil defense, not regular army.

MISC NOTES / QUESTIONS/ FOLLOWUP

Did Jesse, son of John I,  marry Nancy Crews, Ann Crew, Ann Pretlow,  Ann Elmore or, as the Hale relatives testified to the Dawes
Commission, he married Sarah Elmore?????  There is much disagreement about his wife or wives.  By some accounts, it appears that
all of Jesse's children are by a wife named Ann. 

This is probably the Jesse Henley shown by census to be in Pasquotank Co, NC 1754, especially since a Mary Henley is also listed.
Hinshaw shows 1788, 9, 21 John, son of Jesse, Randolph Co. married Keziah Nixon at Little River Meeting House near Newbegun Creek. 
Hinshaw shows that Keziah was attached to Center MM prior to her marriage.

Need to check if any of the sons of Joseph and Mourning Anderson Henley had a son named John.

NEED TO SORT AND MOVE
NC census shows an Elmore Henly in Bute Co, NC in 1771.  Elmore shows up again in Wake Co, NC in 1790.  Both times he is only
Henly or Henley in those Counties.  An E. Henley shows up in Franklin Co, GA in 1802.  An Edmund Henley also shows up in GA as
same and later dates.

WHAT WE KNOW FOR SURE:

Ann or Anne Crew married Joshua Pretlow in 1753.  In 1761 or 1762, Joshua died.  Jesse Henley's will proves that this Ann Crew
was his wife after Joshua died.  Jesse married her in 1763.  In Jesse's will he names his stepchildren, Ann, Rebeccah and Thomas
- the children of Joshua.
