Thank you for all your efforts ,you have got farther than I have. I now need to find out what happened to Edwin Gentry's children.

Norman

Have you any certs that tell you that the family headed by Edwin/Edward Gentry
is George Sidney Gentry's father !!!!

you need to get a copy of George S Gentry birth or marriage to confirm who his
father is --- the birth will also give you his mother .

if by chance Edwin/Edward Gentry is the family you want to follow there is no marriage to his "wife" Louisa so it will not be easy
