UNPLACED LENTS

These are Lents living in the Martin and Daviess Co. area, who I have not placed yet. Although I do believe they are somehow related to old Jacob Lents of Kentucky.

ENOCH LENTS

In a Latin document pertaining to the marriage of Enoch Lents and Julia Ann Lents (daughter of John Jacob Lents). They had to get the Church's approval, for the marriage as, they were cousins in the 3rd degree.
In one census it had Enoch born in Ohio, in others it had Indiana.

The death certificate I have for him from the Health Department does not give any parents names.

Some of Enoch's descendants can be found on the John Jacob Lents page. For children of his 2nd wife, contact me, and maybe I can help.
