Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility.
What is the origin of the name Whaley? This ques tion early engaged my attention. It was suggested partly because unknown to me in early days outside of immediate relatives.
There were Jones and Smiths in the neighborhood who claimed no relationship to each other - but no one by the name of Whaley had been heard of, whose pedi gree was not in direct connection with our own.
This curiosity led to the habit of taking notes of facts, and securing old traditions, and letters bearing on the history of the family.
This grew into a broader record from the pages of history.
Thus investigation has revealed many writings and monuments of the family, running back nearly nine hundred years.
The Whaleys are of the old Norman stock of Eng land.
The man from whom all the family is traced was of Norman extraction - this family, in time became numerous, and held a prominent influence in the civil and military offices of England.
Branch 35 of the fam ily emigrated to Ireland, and descendants of these branches came to America.
It is the purpose of this volume to present in order the facts about the Whaley family which an investiga tion covering many years, has discovered.
