Mary Ann KENT was my 3 great grandmother, by her first marriage to John EISIMINGER. My great-great grandfather was Benjamin Franklin Eisiminger, and his son, Samuel Bowers Eisiminger, was my great-grandfather. So, I'm interested in all the Kent information.
Emily Jordan eejordan@lucent.com http://www.c2-tech.com/~gregg/family/surnames.htm also descends from Mary Ann KENT/John EISIMINGER.

I am a descendent from Thomas KENT & Anne RALSTON thru their daughter Mary "Polly" KENT who m. James WHITE (b.1781- d.1861, son of Jesse > Uriah > Nicholas > Edward) not the son of David WHITE as the TENMILE COUNTRY indicates on pg 396 (this proven by wills and deeds). James WHITE (b. abt 1813 - d.1876, son of "Red" David > Uriah > Nicholas > Edward) m. Elizabeth SYPHERS (a sister of John, Thomas & Mary SYPHERS according to Dorothy Hennen) and had no issue.
Georgeann's NOTE: This is a different Mary KENT then the Mary Ann KENT who married John Eisiminger before marrying Christian ODENBAUGH. But it is possible both Mary KENTs are related as they were both in Greene County, PA about the same time. What I am most interested is more information on the James WHITE this Mary KENT married as I research the WHITE family extensively in the same area.
