William Whitfield - Not fitting in with the other sib's dates; mom would have been about 58 at his birth as it is now. The

Wait - is this William Whitfield ? Moved him down a generation

I think the 5. William Whitfield b. January 1, 1751, Goochland County, Virginia, United States; d. December 14, 1835, Shelby Co Alabama does not belong with his parents. Not only is his birthdate concerning, but also his birthplace, which is proven. I think he should be disconnected.

Thank you, Faustine.
