Reuben Ard did have an older half brother named James McHenry, who also lived in Wayne County, and owned land at Fall Creek, just across the river from some of the Lefever land and also near some of Reuben Ard's land. . June 3, 1803 Andrew Lefever - 30 acres second rate land in Adair Co., waters of Cumberland River, entry and survey in the name of Susanah McHenry, one male over 21, one horse (I presume the Susanah McHenry was the same person as Sarah McHenry, mother of the Ard brothers, Rueben, John and Jacob.)
