• Notes

  (Research): He was given land by his father on 6 Feb 1756 (Chesterfield Co. DB 2, p age 228) He is not mentioned in the Bristol Parish Register. He evident ly had more children than the one mentioned here, but there is no recor d of them now.. He gave land that he had received from his father to hi s son Henry on 3 Jun 1768 (Chesterfield DB 6, page 34) It is believed f rom this that Henry Jr. was 21 by this time There is much more room for work on this family. Born: Before 1723 Son of Edward and Mary Eanes. Born in Henrico County (later Chesterfiel d) before 1723. He died between 1771 and 1783. He was married. 6 February 1756: Henry was given land by his father. 1762: Henry ÙSEansÙT Senior and Junior are listed on a 1762 list of C hesterfield County Tithables. According to the 1968 history, Henry ÙSis not mentioned in the Bristo l Parish register. He evidently had more children than the one mention ed here, but there is no record of them now. He gave the land that he r eceived from his father to his son Henry on June 3, 1768. It was belie ved from this that Henry Jr moved to Charlotte County to live, for he l ater disposed of the land that his father had given him and in the deed h e is described as being in Charlotte County. At this time, his descend ants are known and it is believed that Arthur and Edward, both Revoluti onary soldiers, were his sons and that they are the fathers of all the P ittsylvania branch of the family. There is much room for work on this f amily although considerable more information is included in the 1967 bo ok that was available in 1940 for them.ÙT A Henry Eanes, Senior is listed on the Amelia County Tax Rolls of 1800 b eing tithable for one white male (himself or possibly an indentured ser vant), six horses, five slaves over age 16 and two slaves between 12 an d 16 years of age. It is nt certain these are the same men. Chesterfield County Deed Book #2, page 228. Chesterfield County List of TIthables, 1762, abstracts available in th e Chesterfield County Historical Society. Chesterfield County Deed Book #6, page 34.
