We so
appreciate Robert Palmer for submitting the information on this page.
Bob says: "The notes in the "Notes" section of the list are
primarily taken from the above book. However, I did add a few where I knew our
information was correct. I also listed "w/o 'husband'" whereas in the book
the two were shown with brackets and no note. We will very likely have a few
to add to this list as we work through William Harrison Denton's family,
especially the daughters since I looked up only Dentons."
