My maternal great grandmother was member of the United Daughters of the Confederacy, my maternal grandmother was a member of Children of the Confederacy and my mother and I were members in the Daughters of the American Revolution. I know my family had a lot of information about our ancestors however much of the documentation has been lost due to deaths, divorces, etc.
From stories I've been told, my grandfather, Robert Rogers also had a very impressive family line in the military. I would like to explore his past as well.
Here is what I know:
· My triple great grandfather: last name is James Chestnut or Anderson. He served from Harry (pronounced O Ree, silent H) County in SC as a private.
· My great grandmother, Ella King Henderson, was verified for membership in United Daughters of the Confederacy
· Ella Henderson’s mother was Sara Elizabeth.
· Ella married Frank Watts Henderson.
· Margaret (1918) and James Henderson were their children.
· Margaret married Robert Rogers
· Margaret and Roger’s children were Dana, Nancy and Michelle (1946)
· Margaret Henderson was in the Children of the Confederacy
Any input as to how I can go about getting pictures, newspaper articles, etc. is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Wendy Bryen
