To whom it may concern.
I have been looking for the ancestry of William Whittington Born circa 1616/17 per court records.
He was a Militia man, and judge, at a young age in VA. So he came from so kind of strong back ground. This is from a acceptable source. I would like very much to see if any one is aware of any problems with the ancestry as shown below. Please note that william Whittington died 28 sep 1659 in the netherlands, holland.
I look forward to your critique!
Sincerely,
Ray Montgomery
