    • Died on the age of 42...Mary Taylor

      17 Apr 2011

      Hi David,

      Its an absolute pleasure to meet a new cousin and especially one that sees the importance and treasure of historical family trees.

      My quest began because I decided one day to google my dads name. Shockingly, there were several recent hits. my dad Warren Benton Hennessee died May 6, 1967 . I was 18 and my brother Steven Wayne Hennessee was 16 yrs old. I dont know really where to begin. You know its been 44 yrs since their death. My dads parents sarah and Alex were older when they had my dad so they too died when I was around 10 yrs old.

      my dad was born 10-30-1921 and died 5-6-67 at age 45 of a heart attack. My mother Kathleen Virginia Lemaster died 3 wks later on 5-27-67 of a congestive heart disease. She could not overcome my fathers death. She was born 2-12-1928. All of this was a long time ago. I had heard we had family in Lawton but the only aunt I remember mtg was Phene from Lawton. I would like to hear how we are exactly cousins. I spoke to my cousin MaryLou Hennessee Taylor and she knows you and family.

      i got on different websites and truthfully enjoyed seeing the Hennessee bridge and cemetary etc. I think I owe you much thanks for your research on oir family history.
      My father was a great man and unfortunately as a kid I didnt so much realize it until I was older. He was very outgoing, took care of his parents, was a leadman at Douglas Aircraft, was a salesman, an evangelist and pastor of a church and had a beautiful tenor voice and played the guitar.
      My daughter Jennifer really doesnt know much about my parents as they died before she was born. She however is the online queen and works in IT for Walmart. I have another daughter Kristen and a son named Justin (Justin and Jennifer r twins).
      I'm young at heart but lets face it I'm getting older everyday. I'm 62 yrs old and hav retired from American Airlines and Sabre. I now work for At&T and hope to really retire... I hav much more to add about my brother Steven Wayne Hennessee. He is a wonderful man too that graduated from OU and owns 2 day cares in area. He has raised most children in 2 local communities... haha...Im sending few old and recent pics

      You r welcome to call me after 6:00 pm any night. I'd like that a lot. plz call 918 231 7755 or

      Looking forward to visit my past, hear your story and learn more about our Hennessee fam.

      Pleased to meet u!!

      I am looking for Warren Hennessee. He was married to Kathleen Virginia LeMaster. I know he died in the late 1960's in Oklahoma. I suspect his parents are Alec and Sarah Hennessee but could be wrong.

      Warren was either married to or had a relationship with Mary Maxine Troxell in the 1940's and had two children Bobby and Patsy who where later adopted by their stepfather.
