Message Board Post:
Does anyone have information on CATHERINE WIGGINS, mother of MARTHA WHITAKER (1746-1801)
who married JAMES CANTEY? She would have been born early 1700's in the Warwick Co. VA
area or Halifax Co, NC or SC. She was married to WILLIAM WHITAKER. Am also interested in
her direct female descendants which would descend from her daughters: 1.Martha who
married Whitaker; 2.Elizabeth who married Burwell Boykin 1782; 3.Catherine; 4.Margaret;
5.Winifred; and 6.Mary who evidently also married Burwell Boykin in 1792. My DIRECT
maternal line looks like this:
CATHERINE WIGGINS (GGGG Grandmother)
MARTHA WHITAKER (GGG Grandmother)
SARAH CATHERINE CANTEY (GG Grandmother)
MARY EMMA CROWELL (G Grandmother)
MARTHA ELIZABETH WHITAKER (Grandmother)
ELIZABETH FORT BRADFORD (Mother)
This is a little hard to ferret out - but if you just click on yourself in your
family file and continue to her mother, her mother, etc. and come to one of CATHERINE
WIGGINS six daughters. That's it. All help would be appreciated. Becky
