I
saw
your
Dennis
Family
website
this
morning
and
want
to
suggest
that
your
Littleton
Dennis
may
be
from
MD.
There
were
at
least
five
Littletons,
but
the
one
that
may
match
with
yours
was
born
about
1780
to
John
Dennis
1760
and
Sarah
Parker
Dennis.
There
is
no
more
info
on
him
or
his
siblings
as
far
as
I
could
see
today.
But
his
tree
goes
back

Re:
Dennis
query
.....
The
Dennis
I
am
looking
for
would
have
died
between
1836
and
1839.
I
have
the
birthdays
of
the
children
-
Oct.
1836
for
the
youngest
surviving
Dennis
child
Oct.
31,
1839
for
the
oldest
Young
child.
M.
A.,
b.
c.
1808,
married
a
Dennis
and
had
2
daughters
(born
1833
and
1836).
After
he
died,
she
married
William
C.
Young.
Between
Oct.
1839
and
sometime
in
1851,
William
and
M.
A.
had
8
children.
She
appears
with
him
in
the
1850
census.
She
is
not
found
in
the
1860
census.
Another
researcher
guestimated
that
M.
A.
died
about
1858,
probably
due
to
her
husband,
William
C.
Young,
being
a
witness
in
1857
to
the
transfer
in
the
interest
of
Littleton
Dennis'
estate.
The
only
ones
that
would
probably
really
have
a
claim
to
any
of
the
Dennis
estate
would
have
been
the
2
Dennis
children,
both
girls.
These
girls
both
married
Gibbons
boys
in
the
late
1850's/early
1860's.
The
Gibbons
seem
to
be
tied
to
this
family
fairly
closely,
since
some
of
M.
A.'s
Young
children
also
married
Gibbons.
This
is
all
I
know
so
far.
Any
help
would
be
appreciated.
Thank
you.
