Exploring the Hender Families of St. CleerCompiled and Explored by Don R. HenderThis is an exercise in compiling such raw information as found upon the St. Cleer parish records, the Cornwall Census records, such Hender family wills as indicated and other resources as found upon the internet. This is an ongoing effort, so do not expect perfection. Take it as it is for what it is. Of the Hender family births recorded on the parish records of St. Cleer, these pedigree determination pages have placed all but two Hender legitimate births into a pedigree position of family ties. The two not determines is the first, William Hender son of a John and Grace Hender christened 23 August 1711. That 'ancient' William Hender and his parentage has no found relationship with the rest of the Hender listings other than perhaps a beginning place to look to for parents and perhaps brother to Samual Hender. The other one not determined is Thomas Hender the son of John and Jane Hender christened 1 October 1809. John and Jane's marriage is not in the St. Cleer record and no other family appears and thus not enough inforation is apparent to place just where they fit. Perhaps someone knows. My own developed database has him entered but without any further information than this besides the LDS dates per the extraction program. There are a certain number of 'base' born children, 4 girls and 2 boys. One boy died an infant and the other I have placed with a family. The four girls I have not so knowingly placed.

Also Attached to Samuel Hender III Will Are These PedigreesSince Samuel Hender III names in his Will just his four daughters there was a question as to Hender descendants from him.
