More STINSON research
Since my last post, I have found a little more information on the STINSON line of my family. I hope this may help anyone else who may be having the same problems as I was.
The parents of Nancy Jane STINSON MEADOR/MEADOWS (b. 4/20/1879 in Allen Co. KY) were James Wiley (b. 1/14/1858 in Macon Co., TN) and Mary JENT (b. 7/14//1858 in KY).
The parents of James Wiley were John Wesley STINSON (b. 1803 in Barren Co. KY) and Cynthia MEADOR (b. 1821 in Macon Co., TN) (second wife).
Then only parent I have so far for Mary JENT is Jonathon JENT.
The parents of John Wesley were Lovell (or Lovet)(b. abt. 1770 in either VA or NC) and Mary Polly POE (b. abt. 1780 in Randolph or Chatham Co., NC).
The parents of Cynthia MEADOR were Pleasant MEADOR (b. abt. 1796 in Franklin Co., VA) and Linnea SHAW (b. abt. 1802 in Bedford Co., VA).
The parents of Mary Polly POE were Benjamin POE (b. 8/14/1749 in Cuulpepper VA.) and Comfort JOHNSON (b. at. 1751 in Culpepper VA).
I am still researching, but thought this might help someone else in their own research. Hope it will be of help to some one.

Mary Jent's mother was Nancy Steinberger
Thank you. That gives me something to work with there. I admit I was pretty stuck on that one. Again, thanks.
If you look in the Kentucky death records for her sister
Marget Jent b:1861 and married James Payne you'll find;
