  1870 Census Record indicates Ezekiel and Victoria were living in Warren County, Tennessee and he was a farm labor and she kept house. It also states Ezekiel was 21, Victoria was 17 and they did not have any children yet. 1880 Census Record indicates Ezekiel and Victoria were living in Kaufman County, Texas with their two youngest children Sallie who was 7 and Thomas who was just 1. It also states Ezekiel worked on a farm and Victoria kept house. The Census shows a 16 year old black male, Kendrick Rofe, living with them who was a domestic servant. 1900 Census Record indicates Ezekiel and Victoria were living in Nocona, Montague County, Texas and they had five of their children living with them Thomas who was 21, Virginia who was 17, Callie who was 10, Nora who was 7 and Samuel who was 3. They also had a nephew, George Hennessee, who was 14 and born in May of 1886 living with them in addition to a 29 year old male servant Joe Lawrence. The Census states Ezekiel was a farmer. Sallie died of Yellow Fever sometime before 1890. Callie, who was born in 1890, did not recall having a younger sister sallie. 1910 Census Record indicates Ezekiel and Victoria were living in Lincoln Township, Comanche, Oklahoma and had two children living with them, Jennie who was 27 and single and Sam who was 15 and single. Victoria stated that she had given birth to five children and all five of them were living. The Census also shows that Ezekiel was a farmer and owned his own farm. "The Hennessee Family in America" by D. A. Hennessee states: Ezekiel was a blacksmith and a woodworker. "Prairie Lore" by The Southwestern Oklahoma Historical Society, vol 10 number 2, book 38, Oct 1973 an article written by S. N. Hennessee states Ezekiel "Jake" and Victoria moved to Vanzant County, Texas. Their two young children (Sallie and George) died there of Yellow Fever. There is no record of George being a son of Ezekiel and Victoria, however the 1900 Census Record indicates a nephew, George Hennessee. There is also no record I have been able to locate of Ezikiel and Victoria living in Vanzant County, Texas.
