He is said to have deserted after the Battle of Guilford Courthouse and took refuge in the Moravian community at Bethania.<P> His will, written November 1823 and probated March term 1824, names wife Elizabeth and the children listed below. Elizabeth's maiden name is given as George in a family history, but we don't know who her parents were. <P> <HR> <H4>Second Generation</H4> Catharine Henning (d. before 1824); her daughters Rachel and Elizabeth are named in John Adam Henning's will.<BR> Their surname isn't mentioned in the will abstract. <BR> Michael Henning<BR> Sally Henning ---<BR> Simon Henning (ca. 1784-after 1860) m. 1) <A HREF="seiler.html">Maria Magdalena Seiler</A> (1782-1847), 2) <A HREF="chitty.html">Catherine Chitty</A> (ca. 1805-after 1870) widow of <A HREF="rominger.html">Conrad Rominger</A><BR> Mary Anna Henning (1787-1845) m.

She is not named in the abstract of his will (Stokes Co. NC wills, Mrs. W.O. Absher). The abstract mentions that wife Elizabeth is to remain in the house and Plantation until the youngest son Gabriel becomes of age. While this doesn't exclude a daughter who is younger yet, we suspect that Elizabeth born 1819 is a granddaughter rather than daughter. Could she be the daughter of of John Adam's deceased daughter Catherine? Elizabeth did not marry but was reportedly the mother of three children. She died of burns suffered when her dress caught fire. The diary of Methodist ministers Michael and Peter <A HREF="doub.html">Doub</A> records that her funeral sermon was preached with the title "Repent lest ye likewise perish". We are putting Elizabeth's children in the next generation.<P> <HR> <H4>Fourth Generation</H4> Child of Edward and Delila Henning<BR> Paul Jackson Henning (1867-1930<P> Delilah also had two daughters from her first marriage, Martha Ophelia Styers and Mary S. Styers.<P> ----------<P> Children of Elizabeth Henning<BR> Levina Henning (ca. 1842-?)<BR> William Henning<BR> Carrie May Henning<P> Levina is living with her uncle William Henning in 1850-1880. She was the mother of a daughter, Annie Elizabeth Henning (1871-1924) who married Houston James Tucker (1877-1927). Annie is reported to have had three children out of wedlock prior to this marriage.<P> <HR> <H4>Sources</H4> Our first information on this family came from a gedcom "bennett.ged" posted to the now-defunct Sharing database in 1995. We have supplemented this with data from Stokes and Forsyth county wills, marriage, census, and cemetery records.<P> This page was created on December 12, 2003.<P> ©, 2001-2007 Faye Jarvis Moran<BR> [email protected]<P> <HR> <B><A HREF="family.html">Return to List of Family Names</A><P> <A HREF="index.html">Return to the Jarvis Family Homepage</A></B> </BODY> </HTML>
