Research log, 2 Oct 2026: Google searches for "Giles Henson" 1770 Jackson County Illinois, "John G. Henson" 1835 Wayne County Illinois, "Benjamin Henson" 1777 Jackson County Illinois. Results: FamilySearch (Benjamin Franklin Henson, 1777-1830) says he died in 1830 in Jackson, Illinois at age 53 (consistent with the 5 Apr 1777 birth here) and lists sons including Giles (1802-1871) and Nicholas Darnall (b. 1804); the Genealogy.com Henson forum post also lists Benjamin among William Sr.'s children. A "REFN2965" note is a leftover reference number and was left as is. Burial recorded only as "Illinois". Unsourced, grade B (FamilySearch plus a compiled post).
