Mary A Wilburn, Mrs. James B. Henderson
Any hints on this Mary A Wilburn?Born about 1837 probably in Kentucky.Marries James B. Henderson about 1853.Gives birth to twins in May of 1854, named William and Benjamin. This was in Rockcastle County, Kentucky.I have seen online the birth record for these boys, and for her next baby, George.I can follow James and Mary Henderson from this time until 1900.Mary is called Hetta A Wilburn on the birth record for the twins. She is called Mary A Wilburn on the birth record for George.Mary is called Hester A. on the 1860, Rockcastle County, Kentucky census (James listed as J B
Henderson).In 1870 and 1880 she is called Mary A, in Douglas County, Illinios.In 1900 James and Mary are in Marion County, Indiana.I believe there is one time she is termed Mary A.H. Henderson.In 1900 her son George is also living in Marion County.Information from the 1900 census would indicate these two, James and Mary, have been married this entire time (not different women).The death certificate for Benjamin Franklin Henderson, one of the twins, in Feb of 1910 in Chicago lists his parents as James B Henderson and Mary A Wilburn.
So any thoughts anyone?Mary A, Mary A H, Hester A, Hetta A
Wilburn---born about 1837, very young when the twins were born, died after 1900, probably in Indiana.
Children:William, Benjamin Franklin, George C., Susan, Ransom, Elizabeth
