Information given to me on May 17, 2022 by her great-grandson, Edward P. Goodman of Texarkana, TX: " Her maiden name was Martha Asenath Carothers. William chose to call her Sena and that is the name by which she was known as in the family. William and Martha (Sena) had 9 children, 8 boys and one girl. Their daughter was named Sena and she named her youngest daughter Sena. After that the name is no longer in the family. Martha Asenath Carothers' father was Isaiah Carothers and her mother's name was Lillie. They lived In Hickman County Tennessee before 1840 and were there after 1850. In a family tree from William's brother, James H. Goodman's family, I saw a entry for "Cena" Goodman, they must have gotten the information orally and used a phonetic spelling.
