“Our children and our grandchildren are messages to the future that we shall never see."

About Us

     The Whigham Family Association was formed in Florida, in 1999, at our first reunion. We determined to keep together and to continue to identify "cousins" around the world, but we would first focus on those Whighams in the United States.

     We have grown to over 200 member families, although we have identified thousands of Whigham "cousins" throughout the United States.

The president of the association is Joyce Whigham Dorrycott, and she may be reached at Whighamgen@aol.com.
