Ennises married Israels. Mary Angeline Ennis married Leander W. Israel. When he died in the Civil War, she moved to Mississippi with her parents. It is believed that she moved back some time later. Leticia Ennis married Leander's brother John Whitmore Israel. He also died in the Civil War and she also moved to Mississippi with her parents. She later married a man named Smith. Later Ennises married into the Anthony family as well.
