1. Squire HENDRIX was on the Anderson Co., TN tax list in 1805. Signed a petition for a road north of Walden's Ridge on the waters of the Emory River in APR 1812 in Roane Co., TN. He appeared in the 1814 Roane Co., TN tax list in Capt. HALL's Co. (pg 7), with 40A on the Big Emery River and 1 white poll. The 1815 tax list had him in the same location but without acreage.

2. Squire HENDRIX purchased 100A in Anderson Co., TN on the East Fork of Poplar Creek for $400 on 16 FEB 1805 from James PORTER. Deed witnessed by William GAMBLE & Matthew HAWKINS. Squire sold the land back to PORTER for the same price on 14 SEP 1807 but the deal must not have been consummated since Squire (of Roane Co) sold 114A on the East Fork of Poplar Creek in Anderson Co., TN for $500 to Mitchel CHILDRESS on 5 JUN 1809. Isaac STANDIFER and James PORTER witnessed the deed. [Austin HACKWORTH witnessed an Anderson Co., TN deed on 15 JAN 1813 when Isaac LOW sold 10A between Scarborough Ferry and Poplar Creek for $20 to Carter HENDRIX. Gabriel HACKWORTH witnessed the deed as well. Austin was Polly's brother. Who was Carter HENDRIX??] Squire moved to Sequatchie Valley in Marion Co., TN where he was in the 1830 census (p.63; 12013001-0102001, same page as his brother in law Austin HACKWORTH, 210001-010001).

3.After Polly died (<30 MAY 1835) he sold all his land (290A) and livestock to his sons Tarlton and Lewis before moving to Missouri, where he died.
