Joseph Andrew Jackson HENSON
1841 - 1930 (~ 89 years)
-
Name Joseph Andrew Jackson HENSON Born CA 1841 Kanawha Co, (W)VA 
[1, 2] - Middle initial given as A in death record, but as J in 1870 and 1930 Census, while he is identified in wife's death record as "J. A. J. Henson, Sr." The 1930 Census gives his age as 89 (b. ca 1841), but his death record a few months later states his age as 79 and specifies a birth date of Jan 6 1851. Since his daughter Susan is known to have been born in 1861, the earlier birth date given for him is considered more accurate.
