Hello, I'm wondering what documentation that you have of Susan "Sallie" TOVERY's marriage to Enoch WHATLEY?

Most things say that that Susan is actually a GARNER. Anything that you can tell me would be greatly appreciated...

Hello Jennapher,
Can you give us some dates on this Enoch and Susan? There appear to be several Enoch Whatleys. I just visited a site that has an Enoch married to a Susan, however the dob of Enoch seems to be confusing: it states that Enoch was born 1910, but his wife was born in 1824?

This Enoch would've been born in 1810 actually... The thing is that many Whatley's feel that she's a GARNER, but it seems as if she may have been a TOVERY... I just need some proof one way or the other... A marriage certificate would be ideal, LOL
