ON SOME LINES I'V GONE AS FAR BACK AS THE 1500'S BUT ON MY WILLHOIT LINE I'VE ONLY BEEN ABLE TO GO BACK TO THE 1800'S. WHAT I DO KNOW IS MY G-G-GRANDFATHER WAS HENRY ODD WILLHOIT B. 1840 IN TENN. D. 1929 IN OKLAHOMA. HE MARRIED MARTHA RILEY B. 1861 IN TEXAS D. 1948 IN OKLAHOMA. I BELEVE HENRY'S FATHER MAY HAVE BEEN A MAN NAMED YOUNG WILHOIT. IN A CENCUS BOOK OF 1840 THEY SHOW THREE WILHOIT'S LIVING IN TENNESSEE,YOUNG WAS THE PERFACT AGE TO HAVE A SON BORN ( THE OTHERS WERE MUCH OLDER). ALL THREE MEN SPELLED THERE NAMES WITH ONE L . DO YOU KNOW ANY THING ABOUT THIS LINE? THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND I LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR RESPONSE. BRUCE H. WILLHOIT SOUTH CAROLINA
