Hello, thanks for the reply. My Whaley line I am researching is from Ohio. My dad is Gene Whaley, his father is Henry John Whaley (1892-1963) . There is some missing and I just started looking into it. I was told that Ewin Whaley (1825-?) married Anne? (1824-?) and they came from Ireland in 1852. I haven't found anything to confirm that info. yet. I just ordered the census trying to find Henry's father. I do not know where they are from, or where they came in at. Deb Jackson

Hi, I am looking for a John Whaley. He was married to Margaret Watt. She died at the age of 75 on July 16, 1951 in Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada. They had 2 daughters (and possibly one son). They operated a boarding house in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. Would you have any information on this John? It is likely that he also died in Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada. My email address is: [email protected] Thank you, Elke Marriott </XMP>

To Ruby, Jackie, et al. Now that I have updated information on my sister-in-law's Whaley line, I am wondering if you have any census record of Marion Frank Whaley, b. Oct. 21, 1864 (England? Germany?), d. Nov. 22, 1945 in Bonham, Tex. According to my sis-in-law, Frank was either English or German, and his wife was full-blood German, and they arrived on a ship from Germany (I'd guess immigration @1893, as the wife was 20 in 1894 and they had a child born in 1894). Unfortunately there is no name given for the wife except "Mrs. M. F. Whaley" on the tombstone; she was b. Feb. 19, 1874 (Germany?) and d. Mar. 14, 1933, Bonham, Tex. They had at least two sons: 1. V. V. Whaley, b. April 7, 1894 - d. Oct. 28, 1962 (it's Virvin Verlon, but V.V. on the stone) 2. Marron Ernest Whaley, b. May 19,1895 - d. Sept. 30, 1918 (I spelled this Marron and the Marion above exactly as on the stones; poss they were intended to be the same name) All four are buried in Hampton Cemetery at Edhube, near Bonham, Tex - - - - -BELOW, I am including info from other tombstones in the same cemetery, POSSIBLY related, and then again maybe not. I ran into some gossip about a possible rift in the family. (I have photos). 1. Birdie L. Whaley,1885-1972 2. Cora Lee Whaley, Aug 19, 1908 - Dec. 30, 1989 3. D. C. Whaley 1885-1943 4. Lucille Whaley, b. Mar. 18, 1910 (no DOD), Jack Whaley, Sept. 21, 1911 - July 1, 1951 THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!

George Thank you for the posting from the MOABSTRACTS. I am happy to say John C. Whaley of Osceola, Mo., was my g- grandfather. Any address on that site? Thanks Sue J.

Hello fellow researchers: I noticed in a listing by Robert Whaley on the Virginia Immigration that a James Whaley was listed as arriving in Virginia in 1698. He had a listing that referred to the [Irish Settlers In America] by Michael O'Brien. Does anyone have info on this James Whaley as far as parents and siblings? Any help would be appreciated, since Robert Whaley is going to be off line for a while. Thanks, Keith Whaley

I've been a member of the WSP for about a year but my e-mail address changed and so has my oldest ancestor thanks to this list. My gg grandfather was John C. Whaley b. 4/15/1786, Essex, VT, d. 11/10/1852, Gorham, Fulton Co. Ohio. He married Matilda Collins in 1816 in NY, b. 9/18/1799, Greenfield, MI, d. 11/23/1878 Morenci, MI. I'm descended from one of his sons, Otis Butler Whaley, b. 3/18/1819, Cato, NY. I would love to hear about the Vermont and Ohio Whaleys from Keith Whaley. John C. Whaley & Matilda are listed on the 1850 census. And a special thanks to Jackie and Ruby for all their good work. Linda Whaley Boehme South Lake Tahoe, CA [email protected]

Good heavens! Another Keith Whaley! I'm of the Vermont, upstate New York & Ohio branch of the Whaley family, so to set the record straight, my full name is Donald Keith Whaley, presently living in So. Calif...

Hello: My name is Keith Whaley, a descendent of Samuel Whaley, Sr. of the 1790 Duplin County Census. I have been trying to find a connection of my Samuel Whaley, Sr. to James Whaley of the 1790 Census. Upon getting a deed record of James Whaley, where he sold 200 acres of land to Joseph Thigpen on February 13, 1723 my thoughts have changed. Given an approximate age of 20 for James Whaley, he would have been born around 1700. I am thinking that the James Whaley on the 1790 Census was a Jr. but no proof. He was a young man with 5 white male children under the age of 16 and 5 white females also, including the mother. I have an Estate land sale of James Whaley in 1794. This is probably the James Whaley of the 1790 Census since he was not listed on the 1800 Federal Census. I am trying to find a connection of the older James Whaley of 1723 land deed record with some Whaley's of Virginia or further North. If you have a James Whaley, that is missing from your line it may be this one in North Carolina. I would appreciate hearing from you. Thanks, Keith Whaley

Dear Whaley Searchers, While researching my Whaley's in the Muskogee Oklahoma Genealogy Department, I ran across some entries that do not fit in my family, but may be of interest to some of you. Index to Oklahoma, Muskogee County Marriages 1907-1918 Whaley, Blain 23, to Adams, Daisy 25, 13 Oct 1916 Whaley, Harry R. 39, to Hill, Ada 38, 20 July 1918 Whaley, Hugh B. 33, to Hardin, Lora 32, 22 Nov 1909 Whaley, Fanny 24, to Armstrong, R.

The film that I ordered for marriages in Greene Co GA (from the late 1700s to the middle 1800s) came in and so I went to the FHC prepared for a long, tedious job of reading marriage records to find out if Edward Whaley and Elizabeth Caldwell were married in 1803 or 1830. But it only took 5 minutes. There was an index and it referred me to page 11, and so there it was--Aug.17th, 1803. That means that the Elizabeth who was the mother of James Ratliff Whaley of Dale Co AL, could not be Elizabeth Caldwell, as the stone beside James Ratliff states that his mother Elizabeth was born in 1802. I am going to make a scan of the page 11 that I had copied, and I will send a copy to Gene Hardy Whaley and his cousin Clara Spivey, descendants of James Ratliff Whaley. And if anyone else wants to know about early Greene Co marriages, let me know, as the film will be available to me for 6 weeks. AND--if you have a copy of "Early Greene Co GA Marriages" by Maddox, change the marriage date for Edward Whaley and Elizabeth Caldwell to read *1803.* Ruby Nelson

Hi, I'm Joe Woods, I am looking for any ancestors of , or any info on Lucretia Whaley, b. abt.1823, in (W.) Virginia. She died 18 Dec 1895, prob. in Meigs Co., OH. She married Erastus Stow, Jr. also prob. in Meigs Co., OH. Any help would really be appreciated. Thank You, Joe Woods

In July, Robert Whaley reported to the list a possible marriage record of Edward Whalley the regicide, in the marriage registers of St Dunstan's Stepney. I saw it today on microfilm at the local FHC: Feb 7 1627 Edward Whalie of Flintham in Nottingham, gent, and Judith Duffield of Rochester, Kent. M. [Maiden], L.V.G. [Licence Vicar General] I believe that there are good grounds for believing this really is the first marriage of Edward Whalley the regicide. 1) The names fit. In 'English Record of the Whaley Family' Rev. Samuel Whaley says (p17) that Edward was the second son of Richard Whaley of Screveton, Nottingham County. Born in 1615 (on p21, he says 'about 1615'), his first wife was Judith, daughter of John Duffel, Esq. There are spelling differences in both surnames in the marriage register, but these are probably insignificant. 2) The date fits. Edward obviously couldn't have been born in 1615 if he were married in 1627. But on p68, Rev Sam confidently states that Edward's eldest son John was born in 1633. This fits OK with a 1627 marriage. 3) Edward's place of origin fits. Flintham, Nottinghamshire is within 2 miles of both Screveton and Sibthorpe, which feature large in the history of the Regicide's ancestors given by Rev. Sam and others. They lie about 10 miles east of the city of Nottingham. Confusingly, there is another Sibthorpe, about 20 miles to the north, which lies close to Kirton, another place which features in a history of the Regicide's ancestors. 4) The status, gentleman, fits with Edward the regicide, who came from a wealthy family. In those days, a gentleman was someone who had no need to actually work for a living. But Edward was the second son, and in any case the family's wealth had been severely reduced by his father. Rev. Mark Noble, in his 1787 book 'Memoirs of the Protectoral House of Cromwell' relates (Vol2 p140) the misfortunes of Richard Whalley, father of Edward, and goes on to say: 'Q. Elizabeth permitted him,...to alienate...[various granges and manors] to Edw. Osborne, citizen and clothworker, of London and having first inclosed, he mortgaged, and in the end was obliged to sell, the lordship of Sibthorpe, with other lands in Canolston, Hawkesworth, and Flintham, which were only a collateral security with Sibthorpe;' I include this quotation because of its mention of Flintham, and of a certain person who bought a lot of property from the Whalley family, who was a citizen and clothworker of London. This brings me to the final point. 5) Edward Whalley the Regicide probably had something to do with the cloth industry, and Stepney was an area of cloth weaving. Rev Sam says simply that Edward was brought up in merchanise in London. Rev Mark Noble says (Vol 2 p143) 'Edw. Whalley, esq. was brought up to merchandize; Heath says, he was put apprentice to a woollen-draper; some other writer calls him a broken clothier; a thing almost impossible, when the grandeur and wealth of his family and father are considered; another writer, no more a friend than Heath to him, acknowledges that he was a merchant;' The parish of Stepney included Spitalfields, where French Huguenots (Protestants) founded silk weaving. The Stepney marriage register for the year 1627 (which includes the Edward Whalley marriage) has about 400 entries. This is 800 people, of course, but the occupations are recorded for the men only. I counted 20 weavers, 13 silkweavers, 2 tinnieweavers,5 silk throsters, 5 clothworkers, and various other trades such as haberdasher, tailor, hatmaker, feltmaker, needlemaker, theadmaker, glover, dyer, and so on, in total 73 out of 400 occupations to do with the cloth or clothing trade. I think this proves the point. Sorry this note turned out to be rather long; but I hope it is of interest. Frank Whalley Cardiff, Wales, UK

My name is Patrick Michael Duffy. My mother is Helen VanBlaricom Duffy We are looking for other researcers that tie into our geneology. My direct lineage is outlined from the Whaley we are researching. You can look more closely at http://worldconnect.genealogy.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?db=helenduffy4 for details.

Duffy - Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada mailto:[email protected]

I am still elated! This is what I know about John's life: 1834 - born Greenwood, SC 1844 - brother William marries Elizabeth Starlen 1845 - brother William dies 1850 - Census, Abbeville Dist, SC 1850 - Lewis (father) dies -- there is a will on record which I will be receiving a copy of shortly, Damaus (Demaris), Elizabeth, and John receive $1000 (total) 1855 - John turns 21. At probate (?) John receives $200 (I have also requested a copy of this) 1859 - John marries Fredonia Womack in Panola County, TX 1860 - Census, where is John? 1861 - John returns to SC and enlists in SC artillery company (I have requested military papers) and has his leg blown off (family story) 1862 - Fredonia dies in childbirth with son, John Daniel 1863 - John enlists in the CSA in Dallas (military papers in hand) 1864 - John marries Fannie Jerdan in Rusk County, Texas 1865 - John discharged from CSA 1869 - Fannie dies in childbirth with son, Lewis Williams 1870 - Census, where is John? 1873 - John marries Amanda Canady in Dallas County, TX 1880 - Census, Dallas County, TX 1900 - Census, Dallas County, TX 1910 - Census, Dallas County, TX 1913 - John dies 1928 - Amanda dies Notes: I am descended from John's son Elmer Clarence Whaley. He was my great-grandfather. My grandfather was originally christened William Calhoun Whaley, but his name was changed to William Clarence when he was 2, and nobody knows why. I am really leaning toward John's mother being a Calhoun because the Calhoun family first names are very much the same as ours. But who knows? When John came of age in 1855, the probate record notes that his father served in the War of 1812. Because John served in the CSA, he was not allowed the land grant due his father for this service. (I have also ordered military papers on Lewis Whaley). Also, I have given the South Carolina Historical Society, all the names from the 1850 census, and they are going to research all the marriage records to try to find a notice of Lewis' marriage, and any other data they might have on hand. There is a John C. Calhoun Whaley from Edisto Island, SC, but he is younger than my John. I thought he and his mother might have been sent inland during the plantation revolts before the Civil War. This John C. Calhoun Whaley also served in a CSA Artillery Co. from SC. As soon as my credit card cools off, I may also request his military papers, just out of curiosity............ It would be cool to be related to John C. Calhoun, but I'm just happy you have gotten me past the biggest roadblock of my search. I will never be able to say enough thanks. Sorry this was so long......... Debbie Whaley
