Isaac Horn (seal) for self and Jesse Horn (seal) Irvan (his X mark) Whittington (seal) (The above named, James Bowles, Blake Pearcy, Isaac Horn, Jesse Horn & Irvan Whittington along with Sherrod Whittington were apparently the legal heirs of William Whittington. Irvan is also known as Irwin Whittington on other records. It is suspected that James Bowles, Blake Pearcy, Isaac Horn and Jesse Horn are possibly son-in-laws or grandchildren of William & his wife Mary Whittington. I would welcome contact from anyone who can shed some light on that subject). Cheryl Aultman
