    1. Re: DuBose/Whilden
    2. Hi Ann, My daughter m. a DuBose/Whilden descendant 9 Oct. here at our home in Winston-Salem, NC. His name is Jonathan B. Engel. His grandmother, Geraldine "Gerrie", was a DuBose, descendant of Isaac. She m. John T. Engel of Savannah, Ga. I have been sent a little Whilden information but have put all gene. away for a bit as wedding guests would have found it an obstacle, I'm afraid! As I recall they had been living on Cape Cod and later came to SC by ship, were ship wrecked off NC coast, rescued by Indians, of whom they were afraid at first but were treated very well. Then Lord Granville arranged to have them locate near the Santee River in SC. They formed a church body in the SC area. Seems they were New England Puritans, correct? I hope I am not confusing part of this with the New England Janes line. I know they were Puritans. I am looking forward to sharing information, not that I have a tremendous lot. I did not know that the surname had not died out but glad to see that it certainly has not! I look forward to hearing from you very soon. Bebe Fox Winston-Salem, NC
