Could your Whittington have changed the spelling of their name. I ran into this doing work on a Marion Andrew Whittington ... to Whittenton? As his family moved from the Pike, Alabama area to Hamilton, Texas just after the Civil War, I was in a titter for a long time. So many of my people moved from Alabama to Texas after the Civil War that I find the Westward movement interesting. Where is wishing you luck and I am keeping a 'hard copy' for my Whittenton / Whittington file.
