*1850 census listing Levi & Sarah. Believe her age must be wrong; it was stated as 34. I think the census-taker meant "54" because that's how old she wld have been if born in 1796. Food for thought. Provided by FAG member: J.D. Larimore (#47030633)
Father: Thomas Henderson
Mother: Elinor Brinton
She was researched on the TLC's show "Who Do You Think You Are" when the show featured Zooey Deschanel (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zooey_Deschanel) and her search for finding out more about the abolitionists and the Underground Railroad in her family history.
