Migrating from Pennsylvania, Mr. Henderson buys 130 acres in the Delaware 
District and he is the father of our Martha Cochran and her mother was Nancy Ann 
Clendenning, the daughter of Sarah Sturgeon and John Clendennin....

!WilliAM HENDERSON: Guernsey County History: He was the oldest child of John
and Martha (Long) Henderson.  His Grandparents were William and Agnes Henderson
who came from County Down, Ireland in 1758, they settled in Lewistown, Mifflin
Co., Pennsylvania. William was a major in the War of 1812.  He was a blacksmith
and made his own sword. "Roster of Ohio Soldiers in War of 1812" Page 243, Vol.
Colonel John DeLong first Regiment Ohio Militia Maj. Wm. Henderson.

!Nancy Ann Clendennin:  Guernsey County History:  One cold winter's day the
indians, being hungry, came to the little home in Oxford Township.  Not knowing
what she should do, she gave them an apron full of fresh baked bread.  In a few
days a deer was left on the Porch.  She was educated in Harrisburg, Dauphin
Co., Pennsylvania, I assume she was probably born there.
She came to Guernsey Co., Ohio in 1806 with her husband and Children. She was
the first Teacher in Guernsey Co., Ohio.
