Winifred,

Thank you so much. My Wilhite line has been a dead end so far. I only
identified the "Woodward" connection yesterday.

I'm now working on these Surnames and their connections:
LASHBROOK-COOK-WILHITE-CLARK-WOODWARD-FOREMAN

My Grandmother, Muriel Arlene Cook, was an only child and all my father
knew was his grandmother's name Marguerite from an old picture he had. I
tracked down the Wilhite (sic) name from the marriage record of my
G-Grandparents. I then got Alvin M. Wilhite & Elizabeth Ann Clark as
Marguerite's parents from Marguerite's Death Certificate. From there,
the Wilhite line stopped. I sure would like to identify Alvin's parents.

I have identified Marguerite's brothers and sisters, all Wilhites born
in Daviess County:
Mason H. Wilhite b: 28 Oct 1861;
Alice Olivia Wilhite b: 09 Apr 1864 d: 10 May 1937;
David A. Willhite b:Dec 1865;
Anny Wilhite b: abt 1874.

I also just found George A. R. Wilhite, b: Abt 1825, married to my
GGG-Grandmother, Catherine Foreman Lashbrook, apparently after my
GGG-Grandfather Norris Lashbrook died in 1846. I'm going to have to look
into this Wilhite connection also.

You mentioned the Clark connection. Elizabeth Ann Clark's parents were
James M. Clark b: 03 Aug 1810 in Kentucky (possibly Breckenridge County)
d: 13 Apr 1886 in Daviess County AND Hannah Adams b: 10 Sep 1806 in
Daviess County d: 30 Nov 1893 in Daviess County.
I have been unable to identify James M. Clark's parents.

If you would like, you can view this tree at:

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated and thank you again for the
new info.

I thought I remembered from being in Oldham Countoy a few weeks ago the
name. . I found your marriage under their Marriage Index.
Alvin M Wilhoite to Mary Woodward 10/12.1854----- Marriage by Crouch
-----
Line 58 under 1853 O ldham County Marriage Index I found out
th1824-1927
File under W's. I copied all the W's they had. So the marriage copy
should be in their book on Marriages.
I search for all Wihites(sic) You should be able to get a copy of the
marriage from their records in Oldham. I have that address somewhere. .
I also made a copy of the death's of W's in Oldham County so will try
and
dig it up for you. HA!
There was a Wihoite that married a Clark in Owen County. He was related
through my John and Lucy Stapp and Reynolds W and Lucy Towles
