Parthenia McPherson

It may say "Perthenia" on the headstone, but this is Parthenia when all the records are checked. Parthenia Hale was the daughter of Hezekiah Hale (1765 in Virginia - 1792), and granddaughter of John Hale.

Probable children of (Andrew) Barton and Parthenia were: Hezekiah McPherson; Elijah Pendelton McPherson (August 25, 1811 in Roane County, Tenn - February 14, 1882); Susannah (McPherson) Turner (1813 in Roane Co Tennessee - 1860) Mary (McPherson) Haggard (March 01, 1816 in Roane Co Tennessee - November 12, 1891); Charles Perry McPherson; William Bullington McPherson; Deborah (McPherson) Short (April 27, 1821 in Roane Co Tenn - July 23, 1893 in Marionville, Lawrence Co, MO); Parthenia Ann (McPherson) Deatheridge (January 18, 1826 in Rockwood, Roane, Tn - December 28, 1888 in Roane Co, Tenn); John Hale McPherson; Thomas Hawes McPherson (April 01, 1831 near 10 Mile Station, Rhea, TN - January 10, 1894 in Rhea, TN); Barton McPherson; Nancy McPherson (October 17, 1840 - November 5, 1840); and Margaret (McPherson) Foust (August 27, 1835 in Rockwood, Roane, Tn - October 02, 1920 is buried in Cash-Foust Cemetery, St Clair, TN).
