Believe it or not, I looked on EVERY site I rely on, and this is the ONLY listing for any of the names you mentioned!. But, at least, it shows Edmond & Thomas Porter as the grandsons of Annie!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I found a Edmond Carl Porter's draft registration form, it says he was born on May 7, 1885!. It looks sorta like it mentioned a Mary L!. Porter but I'm not sure, the image seems pretty blurred!.

It's hard to figure out, but Annie Whisenant shows up in the 1870 census with Thomas, Adam, Ephraim, Frances, Nancy, Mary, Jefferson & Rinda Whisenant!.

All that the 1900 census says is that Annie Whinsenant is the head of the house, Thomas Whinesant is her son, and Edmond & Thomas Porter are her grandsons, but I bet you know that already!. This all came from Ancestry!.com

On familysearch!.org there is an Anna Lee Whinsenant, born about 1826, listed as the wife of John Nicholas Whinsenant, married Sept!. 1, 1848!.

You can always try to the county vital records to learn a bit more!.

It's not much to go on, but do you have any more information!? There is a good chance the little I found might end up as dead ends, but it could at least give you some clues!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

What are the dates for your grandfather and Annie!?
Where did they move from!?
