  Notes	According to Judy Henry, who has studied the Henry family, "Legend says that Samuel Henry b. 1762 was born in Hanover Co - not provable because of burned records there - but the family probably relocated from Augusta Co., VA area to Washington Co., NC (now Washington/Carter Co TN) by 1775. Samuel's brother James was married to an Augusta Co. girl. All their neighbors were from what is now Rockbridge Co. VA (then Augusta) and Samuel 1762 and his brother William went back to VA to marry about 1780. " There are many, many Henrys buried in the Baker's Creek Cemetery.
