General Notes: Husband - Robert Hendry
Robert Hendry, R.S.
By Spessard Stone
Robert Hendry, a native of the Isle of Arran, Scotland, was a farmer, Revolutionary soldier, and patriarch of a prominent American family.
The Hendry family is believed to have lived mainly on the north and west of Arran; early records tend to confirm this. A Hendry, named John Hendry, who died in February 1738, age unknown, is buried in the churchyard at Lochranza.(1) The Book of Arran, in a list of principal tenants in 1766 recorded Robt. Hendry of Glenrosie farm. New divisions in 1773 had: Rot. Hendry in Little Laggan, Rot. Hendry in Penrioch, J. D. Hendrys in Algollach and Rt. Hendry in Glenrosie.(2)
Rev. John Littleberry Hendry in "A Brief History of the Hendry Family in the South"(3) related of John Hendry, born 1720:
"He was by trade a hatter. While walking one day to his shop in his bare feet, he stepped on a pin that penetrated one of his feet. Blood poisoning resulted and he died. This bit of history was handed down to us by our forefathers."
Tradition holds that John Hendry, born 1720, had three sons, Robert, James, and William, who migrated from Arran and settled in America.(4)
Robert Hendry, son of John Hendry, was born 17 March 1752 on the Isle of Arran, Scotland. Circa 1770, Robert Hendry emigrated from Arran and settled in New Hanover County (now Pender County), North Carolina. In February 1778 in New Hanover County, he married Ann Lee. Born 26 December 1752 in the Black River Settlement of New Hanover County, she was the daughter of Ann Lee, who died 26 November 1800 near Buckhead, Burke County, Georgia. Ann Lee Hendry's father's name is unknown.(5)
Robert enlisted in the Revolutionary War on 20 September 1776 as a Continental (private) in the 5th South Carolina Regiment. His service carried him into North Carolina and Virginia where he served under Light-Horse Harry Lee. He was present at the surrender of the British at Yorktown on 19 October 1781 where he was mustered out of service.(6)
Robert and his family were listed in the 1790 New Hanover, North Carolina census; one male over sixteen, six males under sixteen, and three females comprised the household, who would be Robert and Ann, their six oldest sons, and two undetermined females.(7)
The Hendry family moved to Georgia about 1796 and lived in Burke County until 1801 when they settled at Taylors Creek, a rural community in the western part of Liberty County. There Robert purchased lands four miles northwest of Taylors Creek. About 1807, Robert, Ann, and most of the children are believed to have relocated to Morgan County, Georgia. On 24 December 1816, the state of Georgia granted 450 acres in Liberty County to Robert Hendry and his assigns. The family, except Neal and Archibald who had died there, returned, date uncertain, to Taylors Creek.(8)
Robert was a Scotch Presbyterian and a member of Midway Congregational Church of Liberty County, of which he was listed as a member in 1807. Ann Lee Hendry was a charter member of the Taylors Creek Methodist Episcopal Church, founded in 1807.(9)
Robert became Liberty County tax Collector in 1827 and served until his demise. His son, Robert, Jr., filled the unexpired term.(10)
In the 1827 Georgia Land Lottery, Robert, Sr. was granted lot # 229 in the 2nd District of the 1st Section in the County of Lee for his service as a Revolutionary soldier. After his death, Ann (Lee) Hendry was granted lot # 70 in the 9th District of the 4th Section in the County of Cherokee (now Walker County) as the widow of a Revolutionary soldier.(11)
Robert Hendry died 31 August 1830 at Taylors Creek. Ann (Lee) Hendry died 31 May 1834, also at Taylors Creek. They were buried in the Hendry Cemetery, which was about four miles northwest of Taylors Creek.(12)
A marker, formerly in the Hendry Cemetery, now in Taylors Creek Cemetery, erected by Elizabeth Ann Hendry Floyd, contains these inscriptions: (13)

The will of Ann Hendry was made 3 February 1834 and was probated 14 May 1835 in Liberty County.(14) It follows:

The old Hendry plantation is now a part of U. S. Army Fort Stewart. The old tombstones were removed from the cemetery in 1944 to the Methodist Cemetery at Taylors Creek. The church and town of Taylors Creek were razed.(15) When the work of removing the tombstones began, it was found that the marker of Robert Hendry's grave had been gently pushed up by the limb of a growing oak, which over the years had elevated the stone to a distance of about fifteen feet above the ground.

Wilson's Pioneer Families of Polk County and South Florida stated, "He then moved to Morgan Co. in 1807 and lived there until 1820 when he moved back to Liberty Co.." According to Pioneers of Wiregrass Georgia, however, Robert "was commissioned Justice of the Peace of the 17th District of Liberty County July 9, 1802, serving until 1811, and again commissioned Sept. 15, 1819, serving until 1824." Rev. Hendry in "A Brief History of the Hendry Family in the South," p. 2, placed the move to Morgan County in 1802 and return to Liberty County in 1818.

The former identified the Hendrys respective church membership. The Yarbroughs noted: "The church [Taylors Creek Methodist Church, 1807-1945] was organized in 1807 by the Rev. Angus McDonald, an itinerant Methodist circuit rider. James Darsey, Mrs. James Darsey, and Robert Hendry are known to have been among the 7 original members of the church."

(17) Huxford has the date of death of Elizabeth Ann Hendry as 26 March 1793, but Wilson has 26 February 1793. Rev. John Littleberry Hendry, "A Brief History of the Hendry Family in the South," pp. 2-3, commented of Aunt Lizzie: "Aunt Lizzie developed into a lady of fine parts. She collected a library of good books...was a devout Christian, a liberal contributor to the support of the Methodist Church of which she was a member...She was married to Jesse Floyd when both of them were in their old age. She asked him to come and take charge of her farm and stock of several kinds and this he did successfully..."
(18) Huxford has the date of birth of Mary Hendry as 3 July 1795, but Wilson has 8 July 1795. The earlier cited tombstone inscription, "Aged 46 yr. 4 mo. 7 dys." confirms 8 July 1795.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
From W.T. Hendry letters, etc. (From Robert's brother, James, family) Robert came to the US when he was about 18 (1770). His family moved to NC only AFTER the Revolutionary War. Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) records claim he enlisted in 1776 - 5th S.C. Regs. DAR 121759 Sampson/Duplin Co, NC recs show a Robert Hendry and Daniel Alderman serving in the NC Continental Line. We have sent for Robert's military/pension recs. Ann Lee did petition and was awarded a widow's grant of land, so there should be pension recs.

Robert Hendry, son of the hatter John Hendry of the Isle of Arran in Scotland, immigrated to the U.S. in 1770 after being on the wrong side of the "Bonnie Prince Charlie" uprising. While serving under "Light Horse" Lee during the American Revolution, he met Lee's sister Annie (OK, I'm assuming he met her during his time in the army).

General Notes: Wife - Ann Lee
Some say Ann (Annie) was the sister of General Lighthorse Harry Lee and aunt of Robert E. Lee.
Others say she likely descends from Thomas Lee of Onslow Co NC. New Hanover Co is now Pender Co NC (1993). Ann belonged to Taylors Creek Methodist Church.
Another source claims that Ann Lee was born 1753 in Westmoreland Co, VA., and that she was "of" Black River Settlement, New Hanover, NC. - rhg

General Notes: Child - John HENDRY
John grew up in Liberty Co GA; he moved to Lowndes Co GA in 1827 (his brother, William moved also). About 1855, he moved to Hamilton Co FL. Descendents of his and brother, William, hold a Hendry reunion every year in Ft. Myers the Saturday after Easter; their meeting was featured in Ladies Home Journal one year (circa 1980).
