Isaac Allen Willhite-587 and Isaac Allen Wilhite-597 obviously represent the same person. No one in the comments has argued for William Lafayette Wilhite as the father. He and Elmira Unknown should be removed, and then the merge can proceed.

Wilhite-597 and Willhite-587 appear to represent the same person because: Same name, same dates. Parents of Willhite-587 should be removed.

Isaac Allen Willhite (b. 1830 - d. 1902) - Born in White County, Tennessee and living in White County in 1850. He was son of Solomon Willhite and Jinnett Rebecca Sliger and married Aralissa Howard on 02 Aug 1855 in White County, Tennesse. She died in 1893 and apparently he married secondly Aramita Bryant 18 Sep 1894 in Missouri, but a reference is needed. I see some list her as Aramita Cunningham.

Isaac Willhite (b. 1834) - Born in Bradley County, Tennessee and living in Bradley County in 1850. The son of William Lafayette Willhite and Elmira LNU.

This is the correct parents of the two Isaac Wilhite's as stated by Catherine.

Isaac Wilhite/Willhite/Wilhoit born in the time period 1830-1835 in Tennessee.

Isaac Allen Willhite (b. 1830 - d. 1902) - Born in White County, Tennessee and living in White County in 1850. He was son of Solomon Willhite and Jinnett Rebecca Sliger and married Aralissa Howard on 02 Aug 1855 in White County, Tennesse. She died in 1893 and apparently he married secondly Aramita Bryant 18 Sep 1894 in Missouri, but a reference is needed. I see some list her as Aramita Cunningham.

Isaac Willhite (b. 1834) - Born in Bradley County, Tennessee and living in Bradley County in 1850. The son of William Lafayette Willhite and Elmira LNU.

Isaac D Willhite (b. May 1832) Tennessee - Living in Kentucky in 1900 with wife Emily L. He dies on 15 Aug 1914 according to the Veteran's Administration Payment Card. I can't see a connection to parents, so this may be the same Isaac born to Lafayette and Elmira.(?) Or possibly this Isaac was the son of Starnes Harris Wilhoit and Lucretia Baxter. (?)

Finally: Isaac Wilhoit (1831-1937) born in Greene Tennessee and living in Greene, Tennesse in 1850. He was the son of William C Wilhoit and Mary "Polly" Reener. He dies in Texas. His wife was Rachel Elizabeth Bradey.

I don't see a reference to an Isaac Willhite who dies in 1920 in Missouri. Perhaps you can post where the death 1920 in Wright Missouri is referenced?
