Don, The earliest Wilhite that I have in my Thomas tree was President. I don't know where he fits into the family but you can see the speculation about him that Gerald Wilhite sent to me a few years ago. Henry President Wilhite married Susan Batteral. Here is where she fits into the Thomas family -- through two lines. I wish that I could be more help for you on the Wilhite family but this is all that I have. Tons of Wilhites in Montgomery County, Indiana. Take care.
