Note*Bessie L. Whisenant Comment from Bessie's great-grandson Palmer Whisenant: My father had said that his grandmother had married a man named Black and had a child (his father). He said they had either separated or divorced and she changed her and her son's name back to Whisenant. (The story was that Black or Blackmon beat her and her father and his relatives went and got her at gunpoint and brought her back to his house. Makes you wonder what really happened to Blackmon and why they changed their name back to Whisenant in the 1930s).
