In the Putnam County Herald Newspaper is the obt. of Silas Dean Denny, January 3rd 1935. He was a native of Putnam county, being born near Buffalo Valley, December 1, 1854, the son of Jonathan and Agnes Winfree Denny. He was educated in the public schools of the county, and early in life became a carpenter by trade. He moved to Cookeville about 40 years ago, and by his woodwork became known as one of the best carpenters and cabinet makers in the state. This obt. states that Silas's mother was Anges Winfree Denny not Agnes Thompson. In the obt. for her son John Bell Denny it is listed that his mother was Agnes Winfree Denny. Notes for AGNESS THOMPSON: Source: Roll #101 Cookeville Press newspaper (miscellaneous) 1894•1896, Cookeville Library, Cookeville, TN. DENNY, AGNES: We are pained to announce the death of Mrs. Agnes Denny, which occurred at her home near Buffalo Valley, in this county on last Monday. Mrs. Denny was the wife of John Denny and mother of the Judge T. L. Denny and Silas Denny of Cookeville. She had been in feeble health for some time past, being well advanced in years, but her death came unexpected to her family and friends. Mrs. Denny was a noble hearted, Christian woman, having been a consistent and devoted member of the Baptist church all her life. She lived to raise to man and womanhood a large and respectable family of children and drew around her a large and devoted circle of friends who will sadly miss and mourn her loss. To the stricken family and children we extend deepest sympathy and sincerest regrets in this hour of their sore afflictions.
