Biography

Notes

The 1920 census shows nine children. I have not entered any of the children, other than Paul, since my only connection to this family is Paul's marriage to my grand aunt Cleo Edgerton (making him, of course, my grand uncle). - FR

There are two different George Washington Whaleys born Indiana, 1875 who could be confused. I don't have documentation for the birthplace of either, but this one, born 25 Sep, lived in Morgan County and was likely born there. The other G.W. was born 21 Jul and lived in Pike County, roughly 100 miles (160 km) southwest of Morgan County.

Burial

Mount Olive Fairview Cemetery; Martinsville, Morgan County, Indiana, USA
