Gerald,
Good to hear from you, seems Whiddon researchers are few these days.
I am working on Fortune's husband. I now doubt that it was William, s/o Lott, but I do have an idea. The key may be the land grant Mrs. Martin mentioned. She said the grant was in Decatur County not that Fortune was in Decatur. Finding her location in 1830 is important in determing her husband and she was probably a widow by that date.
So far I have been unable to find anything on this land grant or her whereabouts in 1830. I'm hoping someone has this info.
Regards,
Lou
