Surnames: Rodgers // Crotts // Cook // Whisenhunt Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/hgDBAIB/1677 Message Board Post: James Crotts m Martha J. (maid name unknown, maybe Rodgers, or Cook, not proven) This is very exciting to have found a Whisenhunt/Crotts Message board. I have worked on my Husbands genealogy for several years now and get stuck in Lincoln County Arkansas every time. J W and MCW, wife of JW Whisenhunt are buried in the Plesant Hill Cemetery. We think they are the parents of Joseph Lindsey Whisenhunt 9-27-1867/ 6-24-1938, Birth place, not proven. Brothers and Sisters, not known. Married Leona E Crotts, 2-28-1889 Lived on the farm in that area, had 10 children, moved to Van Zandt County, about 1919 with 8 living children. We have good records from 1919. But need more info. for the childhood years of both lines, Whisenhunt and Crotts. Crotts: My assumptions are that Leona's mother is Martha J. (Rodgers, first marriage name widowed with 3 children) and (Crotts, second marriage name) he died before 1890. Because Martha J. Crotts gave a deed to Leona calling it her "dowry", being a widow of James Crotts, 120 Ac. in Lincoln Co. The Land was originally given as a Land Grant to Joab Cook, 1858/1860. This has made me think she could have been a Cook. Have not found a census to prove this. Any help on my search would be very much appreciated. feel free to email at whisone@etxrn.com
