John Bunyon WHITT

  Noted events in his life were:

• Namesake. The name John Bunyan may have come from the Puritan preacher (1628-1688) by that name. He wrote "Pilgrim's Progress" about a soul in search of salvation.

• Occupation: Cabinet Maker.

• Land: 240 acres, 1851-1853, Tazewell County, VA. John B. Whitt is already in KY at this time. Could this be him and his brother James (or some other cousin)?

  Marriage Notes:

maybe this is Abijah John Whitt who married Hannah?
there's a Hanah WHITT in a census somewhere...

John next married Sarah ONEY on 2 Oct 1833 in Floyd County, KY.

John next married Anna SHACKELFORD. (Anna SHACKELFORD was born about 1813 in NC.)
