I have Whitfield/ Whitfill ancestors who were part of a group of Catholic settlers who came to Washington / Nelson County, Kentucky from St Mary's County, Maryland in the late 1700's.This is the first time I've ever heard of a possible dispute as their reason for their moving.I've always reasoned it was because of others going on before and sending for them to join them, as early American pioneers did.
