William Whitely in Stanly Co. NC
I am looking for descendants of William Whitely who was in Stanly Co. NC in 1887. It appears that he may have spelled his name Whitley so I don't know if this would be the same family or not.His parents were Geortge and Rebecca Whitely and his mother was a Hunnycutt.William was given a British musket by a John Castles after the Revolutionary war--I am wondering if anyone knows if it is still in the Whitely family.
