Message Board Post:
I found in the probate records for James Kent, Sr. (1847) that his surviving children
were:
1) Susannah Kent m. John Price, Jr. (White Co., IN);
2) Rachel Kent m. Newman Prater (Tippecanoe Co. to Jasper Co. IN);
3) Nancy L. Kent m. James D. Shaw about Jan. 1847 (a testimony by James D. Shaw - the
administrator of the estate - states that he was married to Nancy earlier in the year that
James Kent, Sr. had died);
4) James Kent, Jr.
Probate record was found at the Tippecanoe Co. Historical Association. An unsourced file
states that James Kent (m. Catherine Hawk) was a brother of Phebe (Kent) Burgett and
possibly to Silas and Olive (West) Kent and John J. and Margaret (--?--) Kent. All were in
Ohio in early 1800s.
