Person:John Whitlock (12)

I think we are now coming across the descendants of these brothers. Several letters have been received from the family of John Whitlock, born in Virginia January 25, 1797. John was a Baptist minister who married three times and had 23 children. Each of the letters seem to have these basic facts but each deals with the children of a different wife but I am sure they they are all the same John Whitlock. This John Whitlock I believe we are going to find was the son of Thomas & Susanna (Webb) Whitlock.

There are numerous Tennessee documents going back to the early 1800's including land transactions and letters so hopefully collecting these together will shed some light on the connections between the early Tennessee Whitlocks. Thomas & Susanna (Webb) Whitlock are shown on the WHITLOCK10 chart and with the descendants of John Whitlock's 23 children I can imagine there are going to be some rather large additions to the Whitlocks of Virginia chart (WHITLOCK10) in the coming months.
