Hi, Jim, One Whitner in the 1800 Pendleton census by Stewart Stewart page 56 Kilpatrick's Reg't (now Oconee) census page #27 household # 528 Joseph Whitner 30001 - 20100-07 With this notation following: Allen Robertson bought land 17 December 1810 adjacent to Whitner's farm. The Whitners were allied by marriage with the Kilpatricks and when John C. Kilpatrick, Jr. wrote his will 30 May 1840, he named Judge Joseph N. Whitner as executor. The family was in Union Co. SC in 1790 and previously in NC. Cheers, Cordelia
