The parentage is what I'm after and thank you very much for responding to my question. That was very nice.

Was there a source file for the parentage to Henry or did you just get it from a tree or similar.

Answer 1

I got it from an Ancestry tree but the 1850 census shows a Henry Holmes with Henry Hunter. Maybe a grand parent?
