NOTES: Benton County was changed to Calhoun county in 1858. Later Cleburne
Co., was formed in 1866 from Calhoun, Randolph
and Talladega Counties. The family may not have even moved to be in Benton
co., in 1850, Calhoun in 1860 and Cleburne in 1870.
According to the Cleburne Co., Heritage Book, Sarah ELLIS was the mother
of Sitha/Sithy TENNISON, who married John Thrower.
Which lends credence to the fact that Sarah/Susan remarried to Benjamin Ellis in 1
858. It also states that Sitha's father was Mathias
Tennison.
Thanks to my "cousins" Julie and Earlene for the sources and the notes on the
TENNISON's. For more information, please contact
