Reg' Hogan and Whooley family,
Dear Laurice Johnson,
I am absolutely delighted to learn of you and your fathers' research notes as to the respective details of such an historic era therein in Virginia.As you may be aware, in my posting to genealogy.com back in February 2005 and earlier, I did state that further detail should come to light as to the William Whooley family.Which i had researched mostly from "The Whooley Saga" which edition is yet on the shelf at the Sutro Genealogic Library in California; San Francisco.At that time Elizabeth was noted as a member to the household of William Whooley whom had wed to Barbara / Barbary ?.And that his will of `1797 did include David Hogan as a witness.Some years later, Sherry Lynn Frazer from Tennessee, whom is a descendent of Prosser Hogan, wrote to me that she had found more than one document as to David Hogan and Elizabeth Whooley and of Mary Whooley whom wed to David's brother.And that Elizabeth was a daughter of Christophe Whooley and Libby ?.
Sherry Lynn also located letters from her Hogan ancestors which setfourth some of the Hogan generations in the 19 t'h century.Although she had not mentioned - nor as i suppose has found the document which you mention as to Elizabeth being a widow of John Whooley. etc'.
I am upon this instance to wonder, as to perhaps - and this now being a thought - Was Christophe / Christopher Whooley named as guardian to Elizabeth [ a widow to John ]and her two Children; Rebecca and John, because he was her Father and a Brother to John?Which is a possible explanation.In that no statement to the contrary has been introduced.I am myself some distance from my several notes which, I have as to the Hogan and Whooley Family.So please do reply.Most sincerely, yours, D'r Prof' Stephen E' Diamond, L' L' D'
Stephen
