Misc. Notes
This Margaret Whitsett I don't know where she belongs but she did not marry George Blakey--notice her birth date and their marriage date.

Also (I think you were showing a Thomas S. Blakey that was the son of George Blakey and Margaret Whitsett--that's wrong too).

This is the way I believe the Blakey line is:
Thomas Blakey born 1712 married Ann Haden Whitsett born 1724 (his cousin!!)
The had 10 children:
Sarah George Blakey born 1747 married David Patterson
**George Blakey born 1749 married Margaret Whitsett
Thomas Blakey born 1752 married Frances Parrow
Cahterine Blakey born 1753 married Robert Stockton
John Blakey born 1754 (I don't know what happened to him)
William Blakey born 1756 married Elizabeth Spencer
Reuben Blakey born 1758 drowned in the Kentucky River on his way to Missouri
Churchill Blakey born 1760 married Agnes Anthony
Joseph Blakey born 1762 married Winifred Anthony (Agnes above & Winifred Anthony were sisters)
Ann Haden Blakey born 1765 married Joseph Oglesby

GEORGE BLAKEY BORN 1749 MARRIED MARGARET WHITSETT 1787, SHE WAS BORN 1767.
THEY HAD 10 CHILDREN:
Pamela Blakey born 1787 married William Haden
Reuben Blakey born 1789 died September 20th, 1790 he was 9 months old.
William Whitsett Blakey born 1792 married Susan Churchill H. Breathitt
Thomas S. Blakey born 1794 (I don't know what happened to him) but he died in 1856 and is buried in Auburn cemetery Kentucky.
Elizabeth Whitsett Blakey born 1796 married John Hogan
Churchill Haden Blakey born 1799 married Sally I. Haden
*****James Whitsett Blakey born 1801 married 3 times:
1st wife: Nancy J. Haden
2nd wife: Matha Soyars
3rd wife: Elizabeth Moss
Sally (Sarah) Patterson Blakey born 1804 married twice
1st husband: James Samuel Proctor
2nd Husband: Edmund Duncan
Elanor Ann Blakey born 1806 married Rezin P. Haden
George Douglad Blakey born 1809 married twice
1st wife: Lucy L. Thomas (his cousin)
2nd wife: Sarah Jane West Barner

NEXT GENERATION:
James Whitsett Blakey married 3 times & is listed above.
James Whitsett Blakey, Jr. married Martha Chenoweth
Thomas Ewing Blakey married Mary Bell cobb ***my great grandfather
Jesse Whitsett Blakey married 3 times --1st wife Nora Russell***they had 3 children:
Annlou Blakey-Holcomb (is in her 80's & lives with her husband in Dallas, Texas)
Bobbie Irene Blakey drowned at 13 years old during a Blakey Family Reunion
Thomas Ewing Blakey married Lorraine Rutledge and were married for 32 years until they both died of an unexpected heart attack--they had 4 children:
LaDonna Blakey-Wilson
Ronald Blakey
Dorenda Blakey-Malcolm****the one typing this message*********
Dany Blakey-Bruza

Hopes this helps you. You can understand how the Haden and Whitsett names were used so much and when you go back farther you will understand how Churchill got in there.  The good thing about tracing the Blakey family is that there were very few divorces--they usually remarried after the spouse had passed away. What makes it difficult to trace the Blakey family is that they all called their children by the same names. Even when there are several children say James for instance--several of the children will name their own children James. They are a lot of Thomas Blakey's throughout the line.

Hope this helps you. Have a safe and great New Year.
Sincerely,
19Dorenda Blakey-Malcolm, MBS., LPC
