    1. Edward Whaley and Elizabeth Caldwell
    2. 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
