1840 Census Record of Revolutionary or Military ServiceOn February 28, 1839, President Martin Van Buren sent a message to Congress recommending that the officers appointed to take the FederalCensus of 1840 be required to make a return of the names and ages of all Revolutionary Pensioners in the United States. A provision inaccordance with the recommendation of President Van Buren was incorporated in the Census Act of March 3, 1839. A special appendix ofthe census of 1840, gives the entire roll of pensioners of counties. The following is a transcription of that appendix.

John Henly/Henley/Hendley was listed in the Jackson County census of 1840 as being eighty-nine years old. A veteran of the RevolutionaryWar, he was wounded at Redding, Pennsylvania and was discharged from service on April 4, 1778 in Virginia. His participation in that waris verified by a compilation of Revolutionary War veterans receiving pensions which was written by Ernest Boyd, Attorney at Law of PutnamCounty, Tennessee.

Born in 1751, John Henly came to Dodson Branch from North Carolina in the late 1700’s. He was given a land grant of six hundred fortyacres for his service during the Revolutionary War; the land was in the Dodson Branch area on what is now known as the Old Dodson BranchRoad. John Henly had 2 known sons, Joel and John, Jr.

Joel Henly was born in North Carolina and moved with his family to Dodson Branch in the late 1700’s. A minister as well as a farmer, hewas the Moderator of Spring Creek Baptist Church in Dodson Branch. John Henly, Jr. was born December 7, 1829 in Tennessee. He andhis wife Martha had 5 sons and 2 daughters. He died on October 23, 1895 and is buried on the family farm now owned by Nathan Judd onthe Dodson Branch Road.

Baltimore, 1973.

Pierce’s Register: “Register of the certificates issued by John Pierce, Esquire, Paymaster General and Commissioner of Army Accounts for theUnited States,” to officers and soldiers of the Continental Army under act of July 4, 1783.Pg. 3:Among the records which have come down to the present from the time of the Revolution are certain interesting documents connected withthe funding of the Revolutionary debt under the act of August 4, 1790.

As is well known, during the Revolutionary War the Government was often in extremities on account of the lack of the necessary funds, andespecially the pay of the Army was at times greatly in arrears. To remedy, as far as possible, this unfortunate situation the ContinentalCongress on July 4, 1783, when the war was approaching an end, passed the following resolution:“Resolved, That the Paymaster General be, and he is hereby, fully authorized and empowered to settle and finally adjust all accountswhatsoever between the United States and the officers and soldiers of the American Army, so as to include all and every demand which theyor either of them may have by virtue of the several resolutions and acts of Congress relating thereto; and that the said paymaster do givecertificates of the sums which may appear due on such settlements in the form and manner which the superintendent of the finances of theUnited States may direct:“Provided always, That the certificates to the officers shall be delayed for a reasonable time to obtain returns of payments or advances to themby the States or public departments, where in the opinion of the Paymaster General such delay shall be necessary.”

It should be noted that these settlements cover only the sums which remained unpaid at the end of the war.

In accordance with the resolution, John Pierce, Paymaster General and Commissioner of Army Accounts, prepared and delivered to theofficers and men of the Army over 93,000 certificates showing the indebtedness of the Government to each person. Apparently it was notpracticable to consolidate into one certificate all the amounts due each particular soldier, and several certificates on account of separate itemsof indebtedness, in some cases for as small a sum as $1, were issued to the same man. In addition to arrearages of monthly pay and paymentson currency depreciation account, there was due to the soldiers in the Continental Army at the close of the war what was known ascommutation pay. This arose from a promise made in 1776 providing that at the expiration of the war seven years’ half pay would be grantedto officers and $80 to soldiers who served to the enc. This promise was later changed to half pay for life, and, on petition of officers when thewar closed, the half pay for life was ordered to be commuted to five years’ full pay. Several certificates issued in many cases to the same mantherefore generally represent several classes of indebtedness. A certificate for $80 represents service as a private soldier under the promiseabove mentioned.Pg. 242No of certificate: 33801 – To whom issued: John Henly – Amount: $19.80

AMENDED BILL OF COMPLAINT: D. H. Goolsby, G. W. Goolsby, S. S. Goolsby, Lucy McBroom and husband Geo McBroom of PutnamCo., TN and James Goodall Goolsby of Jackson Co. against

Rebecca Rector and Mounce Haney of Jackson Co., G. A. Johnson, Etta Goolsby, Lizzie Woodall all of Putnam Co. and the unknown heirs ofLoge Pippin and Byrd Pippin, non residents of Tennessee, last heard from were residents of Illinois.

Filed original bill 25 January 1915 against Rebecca Rector.

DEPOSITIONS 18 November 1915:

Wayne Stewart age 26, live Jackson Co., I am a farmer. Know G. A. Johnson and Mounce Haney. Little over a year ago I had a contract tobuy land from G. A. Johnson and Mounce Haney, think for $800. Johnson couldn't make a warranty deed, only quit-claim. Russell Lee andRobert Haney cultivated part of the land in 1915. /s/ Wayman Steward

Mrs. Harrett Stewart age ?66/76 of Jackson Co. Am the daughter of William Hendley, deceased and grand daughter of Joel Hendleydeceased. Joel Hendley died March 15, 1874 on Sunday. William Hendley has been dead nineteen years.

Jane Hendley was [my] stepmother. She died before my father.

Grandfather Joel Hendley owned the land. Mounce Gore, his administrator, fixed [drew] the deed before the Civil War. I have seen the deed.I was in possession of the old deed... let P. J. Anderson take it to Gainesboro in the time of the lawsuit of Rebecca Rector against Ben Stewartand wife about two years ago. Think the Gore deed to Joel Hendley was 1854.

Question: Do you know whether your grand father conveyed part of the land to his son John Hendley?

Answer: Yes, sir. The land covered by the Gore deed, Joel Hendley divided in three parts [between] Jane Hendley, Nimrod Hendley andJohn Hendley. I have read Jane's deed... land recovered by Rebecca Rector from Ben Stewart and wife. It covered the middle tract whereold man Joel Hendley is buried.

I burned the deed up 10-12 years ago. John Carrington told me to burn it... said he would not have it about the place. John Carrington is myson in law. Josh Maybury signed his name J. M. Maybury. He is dead.

P. G. Anderson and Wm Draper were attorneys in the case of Rector vs my husband and myself... did not inform them of the deed from Joelto Jane Hendley.

Pap [William Henley] and mother took care of Joel Hendley till six weeks before his death and then me and my husband that six weeks. Bymother I mean my step mother Jane Henley. Philena Rector (Henley) was a poor woman... cripple. Knew her all her life. My father WilliamHendly traded C. L. Dowel and wife a yellow horse for the tract of land he bought of them. It's about a mile from the land in litigation.

Question: Who had possession of the land [in litigation] as far back as you remember?

Answer: Joel Hendley, William Hendley, me and my husband until the lawsuit with Rebecca Rector.

Answer: They lived in Kentucky I think. Believe some of the oldest, Byrd and George and seems like Dick and the old man and woman livedthere a while with Joel Henley, father William and Jane. They did not live in the house with them. They built a house and stayed a year ortwo. George was just a goslin of a boy. He was thinking himself a man... was not a man at all... the others were older than George. SeemsByrd hired to Papa and worked one summer after the family left. He was 20 or 21 then I guess.

Understand Joel Henley executed a deed to his son John Henley and wife Martha Henley... I looked it up and it was made to JnoHenley... 80 acres more or less in each deed. W. A. Gentry has the John Henley deed.

I quit practicing law five or six years ago. Have a license to practice before a J.P., but not a court of record.

John Goolsby and I believe three of his children moved on the land. Believe one was George. George Goolsby about a year ago said his auntJane Henley told him she had a deed to the place but that he didn't know how to get at it. Understand Jane Goolsby was his aunt, not hissister. My wife is not here today. She gave her deposition at Putnam County the other day [April 16, 1916] and it just about wore her out.Putnam County is three miles from us and this is sixteen miles. /s/ Levi Stewart

Just before Jane died she gave the deed to Synth Goolsby and told her she gave her that for waiting on her in her last sickness. This wassomething like three weeks before she died.

Question: Who all was present when Jane told Synth Goolsby or Pippin... could have the place?

Answer: Believe John Kinnard - a widow woman's son, don't know her name, Bill, Jane and Synth. Synth is dead. Don't know about JohnKinnard. About three years after Jane's death, William Hendley married a Welch, divorced her. I reckon she is living. Next married a Smith.

He made a deed to Philena Hendley or Rector to keep Mary Welch off of it. He said she would deed it back to him any time. It was just afterhe and Mary Welch separated.

Synth Goolsby lived about ten years after Jane died. She was around 50 when Jane died. She and her husband were not living together. Heardher say she married Mark Goolsby. Don't know if he was living or dead then... never lived together after that.
