SONS OF NICHOLAS GENTRY, IMMIGRANT
PART 3. JOSEPH-II GENTRY (and Others?)
by Willard Gentry
"Abstract
A summary is presented of all the information that is available about Joseph Gentry, oldest son of Nicholas Gentry, the Immigrant. Four sons of Joseph, namely: William, James, John, and Joseph are proposed, and arguments are advanced as to why none of them is likely to have been a son of Nicholas. The most clearly identified children of these four men are briefly summarized; other potential children will be considered at a later time."
