Hi Bob,

Bless your heart - and your dual intent!

I'd love to find out when (and why) John Wilhoit (and son Enoch) left
Virginia for Kentucky. John ended his life there, while Enoch went on to
pioneer in Illinois. Did Ephrain do any work for John or Enoch Wilhoit?

Regards,

Bob Wilhite
San Antonio
