Our Family Documents
Ancestor Documentation
Our ancestral history starts in the 1600s with the WHITTINGTONS (Francis Whittington), the 1700s with the WALKERS (Jeremiah Walker), CAUSEYS (William Causey), and CARPENTERS (Isaac Carpenter). Other family, like the WHATLEYS (Willis Whatley, Sr.), start at later dates and need more research. Research is still slow, but is progressing. I am adding new information all the time and you will need to check back occasionally to see the additional updates.
