14. Mary Ann Oskins was born on Mar 6 1824 in Indiana. My placing Mary Ann in this family is based on the memories of Charlotte Meeks. Charlotte was raised by her grandparents, Louisa Gentry Enlow and Davis Enlow. Louisa Gentry Enlow was a daughter of Mary Ann Oskins Gentry and Joseph Gentry. Charlotte's daughter, Lelah Barnett, related to me information from her mother. Charlotte recalled her grandmother telling of grandmother Stark, as they called Liddia Stark Oskins, living with them in her later years. Their history shows this Mary Ann Oskins being the daughter of Liddia Stark Oskins and Jake Oskins. She died on Jan 27 1873 in Spencer Co., Ind.. She was buried about Jan 29 1876 in Old Pigeon cemetery, Carter Twp., Spencer Co., Ind..
She was married to Joseph Gentry (son of
James Gentry Sr. and Elizabeth Hornbeck) on Nov 25 1841
in Spencer Co., Ind.. Joseph Gentry was born on Oct
12 1812 in Ky.. He died on May 27 1896. He was buried about May 29 1896 in
