Born: Abt 1795 in:
Died: in: Father: Hickman HENSLEY #4215 Mother: Elizabeth RENFRO #4216 Based on the research by Jack Riddle, he indicates that Priscilla was a Hensley and she was so indicated in my Riddle book printed in 1994. After a death record for Marvel Riddle her son indicated that her last name was Renfro the record was changed in 1996. Information from Bill Hensley, it is now believed that her father was Hickman Hensley and her mother was Elizabeth Renfro. Other infromation from Bill Hensley has been added to her line. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----- F Child 1 Elendor?

Based on this conjecture, I am including her children as descendants of John W. Riddle, Sr. I welcome any comments in support of or in opposition to this conjecture.
