Sources |
- [S45] Pioneers of Old Frederick County Virginia, Cecil O'Dell, (Marceline MO: Walsworth, 1995, 623 pp.).
Cecil O'Dell aimed to "locate and record all the residents of old Frederick County VA who came there from the mid-1720s up to November 1743, when old Frederick County began keeping records." O'Dell searched "court records, wills, deeds, road petitions, land patents, land surveys, [lawsuits], warrants, grants, and Quaker parish records" in Orange and Spotsylvania Counties VA, the predecessors of Frederick County. O'Dell then searched colonial land records from Fredericksburg VA to New York state and London, England to determine when some 400-500 individuals sold their lands in order to move to Old Frederick County VA. He found that 85% of the original settlers in the Northern Neck, as old Frederick County is known, came from William Penn's colonization in Pennsylvania and as far south as Delaware and northern Maryland, while 5% each came "from New York, lower Maryland, and Virginia east of the Blue Ridge."
(Old Frederick County/Northern Neck VA was subdivided over the years into twelve counties of today's Virginia and West Virginia.)
The surname "Whittington" is not listed in the index, so it is likely that the first Whittington arrived in old Frederick County/Northern Neck VA after 1740.
