William is the one buried in Oklahoma (Frederick) with a civil war insignia.
- Family photo from a descendant: My great grandfather William Henson and his wife Susan (Smithwick) Henson. He is missing a finger from war. Left to right the boys names are Will, Robert, Ed, and Herman. He lost the little finger on the left hand. Don’t know about the eye. He would have been in his early 60’s likely in this picture but I don’t recall any stories about the eye.
RESEARCH NOTES
- One census says he was born in Texas, several others say Alabama. Which is correct?
- Zora, Paul and Claude are listed as William’s children by another reseacher, yet they were born a generation later. In the 1910 census for Missouri, I have found a Claude Henson born 1902 in Texas, son of Edw L Henson (abt 1873 Arkansas) and Ella Henson (abt 1876 Texas), likely Edward, William’s oldest son. [TRUE]
- From a descendant: “William L. Henson (he was my great-grandfather) born in 1840 in Alabama, died in Oklahoma in 1924. I visited his grave site a few years back. His wife’s name was Susan Smithwick. He married a young wife, had four sons, one son was my grandfather who I never knew as I was the baby of the family born to older parents… ora, Paul and Claude were children of Edward Henson. They were grandchildren to William.
I do have photos of his grave with a civil war insignia on it. He was with the Texas 14th dismounted calvary. He was in the hospital a lot from the records I’ve seen (fortunately!)
