My name is Larry David Whitsell, son of Eskel David Whitsell, and as such I have something in common with all of the Whitsell’s in our family: we descend from a rich heritage, a line of ancestors such as George Whitsell, Sr. & Elizabeth Crowley from Oglethorpe Co., Georgia in the 1770‘s; Jacob Lester and Martha Miles from Virginia in the 1720’s; Elizabeth Renshaw & John Crews from the early1600’s; Uriah Ledyard & The Rev. Elder John Mark for Pennsylvania in the late 1690’s.
Where to start is always a difficult decision. Equally as challenging is how best to focus that search of our family. An attached list of the 228 family surnames, representing 547 people currently in the family database, shows just how enormous the challenge is. My efforts have focused on the 20 surnames of the mothers and fathers of my direct lineage:
Whitsell, Winters, Rakes, Lee, Fothergill, Westbrook, Clark, Son, Crowley, Crews, Marks, Lester, Orsburn, Russell, Ferrel, Ledyard, Miles, Stanley, Gately, and Renshaw.
This leaves hundreds of family histories for each of you to search out and discover. As for this story, we begin with the Whitsell’s and the journey that led them first to Kentucky and eventually to Granite City, IL.
