      SAMUEL HENDRICKS, son of Abraham12 (Henry1) and Charlotte (Hinton) Hendricks, was born 18 Apr 1791 (probably in Rockingham Co., N.C.) and died in Louisiana 8 Apr 1856. He married on 4 Oct 1813, near Fountainhead, Sumner, Tenn., (where the Dorris family lived), REBECCA DORRIS, who was born 22 Feb 1793 and died 17 Dec 1835, a daughter of William and Catherine (Frost) Dorris, and a sister to Drusilla Dorris who married Samuel's brother, James Hendricks (thus sisters married brothers). At this time, the Hendricks family lived in Simpson Co., Ky. probably 10 to 15 miles from the Dorris home. Rebecca was born 22 Feb. 1793 in Sumner Co., Tenn. and died of smallpox in December of 1835. Samuel was broken in spirit and in the spring of 1837 took his family by team to Nashville and there took a steamboat for New Orleans, then up the Red River to Minden, La., where he resided for several years in Claiborne Parish. In 1843, according to the biography of Tabitha Hendricks Ricks, Neriah Lewis, (the husband of her eldest sister, Rebecca) came on horseback to visit the family, and prevailed on her father to let him take Tabitha and two other sisters, Sarah and Elizabeth, to live with his family in Illinois. Good man that Samuel was, he wanted his children to be better schooled and prepared for the battle of life, so he provided a team and wagon and they started on their journey. There is no further information on Samuel except that he died in Louisiana 8 Apr. 1856, thirteen years after his little girls had left him never seeing their father again. Samuel and Rebecca were the parents of thirteen children, all born in Simpson Co., Ky.
