Wade marciawade@juno.com ==================================================================== This Bible is owned by my father, Leon Baxter Thomason, a retired Baptist Minister and Hospice Chaplain in Florida. TheDendys were from Berryton and worked in the mill. The beginning family names, Latimer, lived in SC and much research has been done on that family, going back to 1644. However, this family Bible failed to note that the Dendy family descends from Larkin Latimer. I painstakingly eliminated each of the 13 children one by one as my ancestor until I came to Larkin (my 11th try!) Family Record: James Latimer was born November 25th, 1780 Catharine Latimer was born March 29th, 1785 Amurst May the 17, 1829 (note: "amurst" is a misspelling of the word "immersed" ) Decest December 13, 1835. Benjamin Latimer was born March 3rd, 1802 Delilah Latimer was born June 4th, 1803 Stephen Latimer was born November 10, 1804 William Latimer was born December 18th, 1805 Larkin Latimer was born March 5, 1807 (note: the Dendy family descends through Larkin's daughter Ophelia) Reuben Latimer was born June 10th, 1809 Wiley Berry Latimer was born March 18th, 1811 Stroder Latimer was born February 28th, 1815 James Marion Latimer was born Dec. 27th, 1814 Harrison Latimer was born December 13, 1816 Clement Theophilus Latimer was born Aug. 31th, 1818 Grace Latimer was born April 7, 1820 Polly Latimer was born September 12th, 1823 Births Borne to us (note: the "us" referred to is Ophelia Latimer b. 1838 and John B.

Dendy was Bornd March the 22, 1901 Mary O. Dendy Borned Feb. 13, 1905 I have typed the text as it appeared including errors except for my personal notes, and except for a rather odd error in the Dendy entries listing the dates as either "Feb th" with the date below the "th" or as "March th26" with the "th" preceeding the number. I corrected these in order to make the entry understandable.
