Diane - I am not sure how to proceed.I don't have a James in the info I have - other than a grandson of my Oliver Tennant.However, the Allen I have is listed as being a brother to John, Samuel, Cynthia, Meribah, Eliza, Harriet, Hannah, and Abigail.I don't have a great deal of info about any of them other than who they married.If James was an older brother, he may not have been listed in the PA list because he was on his own at the time the rest of the family left.To match your Allen, the one I have would have been in his early teens when his father and the rest of the family went to PA.So if he is your Allen, he probably lived with some other family member when the rest went to PA.Could have been older brother James or the Lee Tennant you mentioned earlier.Or my Allen could have gone back to CT a few years after going to PA.
Do you have any other Tennants that would have been older or related to your Allen?The extended family was quite large around 1800.
Another brother of William and Oliver that went to PA is named Allen Tennant.He also named a son Allen - born in 1809.
Any ideas on how to proceed?My email address is [email protected]
