                                        Continued confusion regarding spelling of surname.

The Moultrie County death certificate for James is spelled Henneberry. The death certificate for Elizabeth is spelled Henebery, and the gravestone is spelled Heneberry. Ship's manifests from the 1840's listed the name as Henebry, Heneberry and Henerbry. The Catholic Church in Bethany is spelled as St. Isadore and as St. Isidore. Ship's clerks, census takers, newspaper reporters and others appear to have used "phonics" to spell names and places. Dates also were subject to errors. Obituaries were also subject to inaccurate descriptions.
