Been trying for years to find our family tree. Lost touch with that side of family as a child. I know we had many cousins and aunts and uncles. Not sure if any relation to this Whitecotton family.GReyeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11360994411758274200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1005457009871820467.post-90400979050872917142014-06-06T20:42:41.253-07:002014-06-06T20:42:41.253-07:00My line goes through John Sisk also.

Some researchers have MARY born 1705 Ireland; others have her born 1711 in Culpepper Co VA--which wouldn't make sense, since Culpepper Co was not formed until 1749, and her parents only lived in Stafford Co VA.Bettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03670121380115693696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1005457009871820467.post-68778016843495085402012-02-09T22:03:33.417-08:002012-02-09T22:03:33.417-08:00I am connected through the Sisk Family Mealy White...I am connected through the Sisk Family Mealy Whitecotton & Sarah (Foote) Whitecotton had a daughter Mary that Married John Sisk and the Sisk is My Grandmothers Family line.

I have been unable to document the marriage or her surname. Some researchers think she is a Morgan. <br /><br />The wife of [a] William Manning, as of August 1833, was named Nancy. Deed book 1 page 448 Whitley Co. KY.<br /><br />Gloria Manning Perkins has found a marriage license for a William Manning and a Nancy Martin in 1838, Whitely County Marriages - 4-23-1838.<br /><br />I don't know if Martin is a maiden or married name for this Nancy.<br /><br />There are certainly a lot of questions for the Whitecotton researchers to answer.Steven C Perkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03578164804219522899noreply@blogger.com
