It was suggested that I ask the Virginia group to help me with my James Whaley-1013 date and place of birth. How do I post a question to that group?
WikiTree profile: James Whaley

If his marriage took place in 1739, it’s unlikely he was born after 1720, likely born 1718 or earlier.  His DAR record just says “before 1720.”

This is a link to the United States Project, which has a table with all of the states as sub-projects.  Selecting a state will give you access to each state's project information.

Hi! I added info from/links to DAR records for both James Whaleys to Whaley-1013. I also posted comments/proposed a merge of Whaley-1013 & Whaley-1586.

The other James Whaley is Whaley-215.

The DAR applications for James Whaley, Sr. and James Whaley, Jr. are my submissions from 1986!  I don't know who Whaley-1586 is and now I can't pull him up to see who he was!

Carolyn
James Whaley-215 is no relation of mine!

That's too cool Carolyn! (about the DAR applications)  And I realize that Whaley-1013 & Whaley-215 are two different families, but I thought it would be good to note that there are profiles for them both.

If you go to the bottom of Whaley-1013, you'll see Whaley-1586 listed as being in a proposed merge.

Okay, I attempted to merge the two Whaley profiles: Whaley-1013, the one I created, and Whaley-1586 which shows some info about James' second marriage to Penelope King. I'm glad you spotted that so we can get this family all in one place! I am still in a quandary as to where Donci Hart found that birthdate for James. She is not responding to my emails after a month. How can I adopt that profile?
