!After marriage, Willoughby and Elizabeth, settled in Ware county Ga., near the Florida line. By 1833 he was living in Columbia Co. Fl. Six years later he was back in Ga. in Thomas Co. By 1840 he was back in Ware Co. Ga. Three years later he moved to Hillsborough Co. Fl. where he claimed a 160 acre homestead near warm springs. By 1850 he was living in Simmons Hammock, Hillsborough Co. Fl. About 1855 or '56 he was living in Manatee Co. Fl. just North of Wauchula. This was on a small stream that was spring fed and is behind the Winn-Dixie store today. The spring still runs. In 1860 a expedition was dispatched down the Peace river , headed to Charlotte Harbor. The men stopped at the stream and went up to Willoughby's home to purchase potatoes, which they did. J D Cash 2005 ( Florida Historical Society July 1985 )
!Willoughby Whidden was the first man to be buried in the Wauchula cemetery. At that time it was not called Wauchula, but was known as Ft. Hartsuff and then later as English, for Eli English, who had the first store in the area.
Willoughby was one of the very first settlers in the area to become Hardee Co. It was known then as Manatee Co. and Willoughby settled N.E. of the present day Winn-Dixie store north of Wauchula. It was on a small branch that runs into the Peace River at Heard bridge. He was the only family living in the area when it was surveyed in 1856. His youngest daughter, Lodusky was born there.
!Son-in-laws of Willoughby were, James D. Green (Eliza's husband), Alford Sloane (Cecelia's husband) David Brannon, Ephriam Thompson, & Henry Langford. ( Florida Historical July 1985 ) | Willoughby WHIDDEN

!Discrepancies in the names of children and order of births and spellings of names. some records show births in Hardee before it was a county. Hardee made a county in 1923. Before that it was Desoto and before that Manatee in 1855. Not sure about Ada. Will need to verify. | Charles H. WHIDDON

!This is the immigrant ancestor. He came to Lower Norfolk Co. Va. in 1678,
brought there by John Whiddon, probably a uncle, along with Augustine Whiddon.
William and Augustine were probably brothers, young and unmarried, for there is
no mention of wives, children, or parents in the transport document dated 17
Feb. 1678. To wit...A certificate for two hundred acres of land is granted
John Whiddon for his ownd transportation two several kinds, William Whiddon,
Augustine Whiddon, Edward Pedley, and Ann Friend (Ford). Two of several kinds
is to mean kindred. Williams wife is named in a land deed transaction. ...
William Whiddon and Ann, his wife, deed to Joseph Sugg land......Norfolk deed
book 7, page 92, dated 25 Sept. 1701, proved 5 May 1704. Also William Whiddon
agrees to take care of Elizabeth Smith, his mother in law, she widow of Jacob
Smith. He is to recieve her land at her death, petition filed 16 Sept. 1692

!Source: Ronald W. ELLERBE. Anna Maria's father was Dr. Thomas T. WICKHAM and Ann Eliza SHACKELFORD. Her family was wealthy and Anna was perhaps an only child. After John C.'s death, she married ex-Governor B. K. HENEGAN, but there were no children from the marriage. They both died within a few years. After her death, his large property went, as the law was then, mostly to the HENEGANS - that is the personal property (slaves, stocks, bonds, etc.). The large land estate went to the heirs of the widow. | Anna Maria WICKHAM

!I suspect that the E. in Joseph's name is for Early, since he named a son Early. Early is also a popular name in the Wiggins family in Florida. A Early Wiggins, born in 1853, was prominent in the Primitive Baptist churches of the Hillsborough and Polk Co. areas. Early Wiggins was the son of William Williams who was born in Ga. according to the1870 Polk Co Fl. Federal census. William was 64 at the time of the census.
Joseph was living in the West Lake Wales area, precinct 13, at the time pf the 1900 census. His birth date is listed as Sep't 1857 but I suspect that is a error since the 1910 census shows him only 43 yrs old. That is a discrepency of 9 years. He would have been 42 in 1900 if he was born in 1857. 19 yrs older than his wife. The 1910 census would put him only 10 yrs older than his wife.
In 1910, Joseph was living in the Arbuckle area, precinct 17, and was listed as a fisherman. I have found no other census records for Joseph and Laura at this time. 5 Jul 2002.....J D Cash | Joseph E. WIGGINS
