James Price Henderson was the
second son of Elijah and and Elizabeth Henderson. He was my grandfather on
my fathers side of the family.
It is pretty obvious from the scanty information that Mrs. Crane provided in
her book that not a lot of information about James Price and his family is
known in Alabama and Georgia by descendants, relatives and ancestors.
Elsewhere on this web site I have shown a picture
of Mrs. Crane who I visited in 2005.
She has it listed thusly:
2. James Price "Jim" Henderson was born October 2, 1879 and died June 17,
1934. He was married on April 25, 1913 to Hattie Louise Fuller who was born
March 27, 1899 and died January 7, 1990. He is buried in Fellowship
Cemetery, Wiamauma, Florida. They had Henry, Theodore, Daisy, and Mamie.
Additional information I have entered about James Price and Hattie and their
family has been sent to me by Betty Joyce Henderson Wunderlich who is my
aunt. She had detailed information about James Price Henderson's children,
her own children as well as information on the Fuller side. The Fuller side
is addressed elsewhere on this website.

the Fuller Family.
I also received information from Linda Mason Jackson about the Fullers as
well as the goldmine document of Bernice and Gene Crane. Linda's
grandmother's brother was my grandfather and my grandmothers sister was her
mother.
Continuing my research, James and Hattie moved their family to Florida
between 22 Dec 1924 and 15 December 1926. I found the family in the 1930
Census living in Florida in Marion County District 21 near the community of
Linadale. Linadale was situated very closely to the intersection of Highway
42 and 450. Marion County begins just a few hundred yards west of Altoona
and I remembered my dad telling me that the family had lived north of
Highway 42. I will discuss some of that information later. |

June 17, 1934, in Hillsborough County, Florida (Wiamauma). James Price
Henderson married April 25,1913 Hattie Louise Fuller daughter of James
Alfred and Louisa O'Della Norris Fuller. I will have more to say later on
the Norris family. Hattie was born in March 27, 1899
in Cherokee County Alabama and died January 7,
1990 in Plant City Hillsborough County, Florida. James Price is buried in

In 1917 and 1918, approximately 24 million men living in the United States
completed a World War I draft registration card. These registration cards
represent approximately 98% of the men under the age of 46. The total U.S.
population in 1917-1918 was about 100 million individuals. In other words,
close to 25% of the total population is represented in these records.
I was able to find the draft registration card of James Price Henderson.

James Price listed his residence as Lyerly, Georgia which is in Chattooga
County, Georgia and just across the state line from northern Cherokee
County, Alabama. He registered on September 12, 1918. His wife
was listed as Hattie Henderson and they had two children. In 1918,
that would have been Theodore my father and Daisy, my Aunt.
James Price and Hattie had the following children: Mildred Henderson, James
Elijah Henderson, Theodore Roosevelt Henderson, Daisy Violet Henderson,
Mamie Louise Henderson, Henry Ford Henderson, Unknown Henderson, James D.
Rockyfellow Henderson, Wilma Marie Henderson, Alma Ruth Henderson, and Betty
Joyce Henderson.

In this census Elijah and Elizabeth have married and are living nearby
Elizabeth's parents. They have two sons Nathan 2 years old and my
grandfather James Price Henderson who is 7/12 of a year old. The 1890
census was a bust for most anyone doing genealogical research as most of the
census was destroyed due to a fire. I have not been able to find James
Price Henderson in the 1900 census. He would have been 21 years old
and probably lived away from the homestead. I will continue looking for him
in the 1900 census. In the 1910 census, Elijah and Elizabeth
with some of the remaining family have moved to northeast Cherokee County in
what is listed as the Cedar Springs District. My grandfather James
Price Henderson is living with them but it appears from the way the
enumerator listed him, he is not part of the
nuclear family. Click here to see the 1910 census of
Cherokee County, Alabama! The 1920 census was interesting in that
my father Theodore Henderson first shows up.
Click here to see the 1920 census of
Cherokee County, Alabama! I had done a thorough search of
the 1930 census in Lake County Florida and had been unable to find James
Price and his family. Then on a hunch I looked at Marion County and
presto there they were in the Linadale district of Marion County.
There was community called Linadale years ago and now about all that is
there is a cemetery.
